Honey bees secretly stockpile structures symmetrically. Credit: Peter Marting Honey bees symmetrically organize nest contents, benefiting brood development and temperature control, consistent across species. Symmetry is everywhere and serves a myriad of purposes. Humans find symmetrical faces more attractive, and most animals possess symmetrical body plans, which aid in balance and movement. For similar reasons, the houses, cars, planes, and trains humans build are symmetrical. However, just because a body is symmetrical, does not mean that it’s symmetrical throughout. For instance, the human heart is located on one side of the body. Likewise, although a house may be symmetrical from the outside, the internal layout of rooms and furniture is not necessarily symmetrical. Therefore, while symmetry is widespread, it is frequently only external. Symmetrical Organization in Honey Bee Nests Now, an international team of researchers, led by the Smith Bee Lab at Auburn University, has discovered that honey bees symmetrically organize the internal contents of their nest. This creates a mirror image, where the contents on one side of the honeycomb match the opposite side. Moreover, this symmetry benefits the colony, and is found across all species of honey bees they studied. The famous honeycomb that bees build, with all the individual hexagonal cells, is double-sided. This has been known for as long as humans have interacted with honey bees, and the double-sided arrangement was thought to exist solely to reduce wax use (a precious resource for the bees). Honey bees secretly stockpile structures symmetrically. Credit: Peter Marting The researchers showed that if you compare the two sides of the comb, what the bees put into each cell is a mirror image on either side of the comb. In other words, if honey is located on one side of the comb, there will also be honey on the other side, and the same for pollen, brood, and empty cells. This pattern exists throughout a colony’s life; whatever is on one side of the comb is a mirror image of the opposite side. Innovative Research Techniques and Findings “We kept colonies in huge observation hives, so that the bees could build a full-sized nest between the two panes of glass, and we could inspect the nests many times without disturbing them. The only problem is that when you want to map the nest, all the bees are also in there, so you have to wait until they move out of the way to peek inside each cell. Fortunately, with a good headlamp and a dedicated research team, we were able to collect 148 nest maps from six colonies,” said Michael L. Smith, PI of the Smith Bee Lab, and first author of the study published in Current Biology. The researchers then wanted to know if workers needed to be in direct contact with both sides of the comb to create this symmetrical pattern. To do this, they invented a special type of observation hive, where the base of the comb is impermeable, so independent colonies can build and stockpile nests on either side however they wish. To their surprise, the independent colonies mimicked each other’s nest organization, despite not being in contact with one another (each colony had its own nest entrance, and the workers did not mix between colonies). Honey bees secretly stockpile structures symmetrically. Credit: Peter Marting The researchers then hypothesized that heat might be a way for colonies to indirectly communicate the position of different nest contents. After all, honey bees are extremely particular about the temperature of their nest, because it’s critical for the development of the brood. The researchers placed heat pads set to broodnest temperature on one side of their special observation hives in random locations and then installed a colony on the other side. Ten days later, they came back to see where each colony built their nest and found that 100% of the capped brood was perfectly aligned with the position of the heat pad. “When we mapped these colonies, we were blind to the position of the heat pad, because we didn’t want to accidentally bias ourselves. But the brood pattern was striking – you were practically tracing out a rectangle of brood on one side, which matched the heat pad on the opposite side,” said Claire Bailey, then an Auburn undergraduate in the Department of Biological Sciences and co-author of the study, now a PhD student in the Barden Lab at NJIT. “While there are many models for how honey bees might organize their nests, this experiment provides empirical evidence that temperature cues are an important factor,” said Smith. Implications of Nest Symmetry on Bee Colony Health Other types of symmetry provide tangible benefits, such as improved locomotion for a symmetrical organism. To test how nest symmetry benefits a colony, if at all, the researchers created one-sided and two-sided nests (colonies living in two-sided nests made their nest symmetrical, but colonies living in one-sided nests could not). There were clear benefits of a symmetrical nest – after only ten days, symmetrical nests had almost 60% more brood than their non-symmetrical counterparts. Furthermore, the temperature profile of the symmetrical nests was more stable, which is critical for the developing brood. Finally, the researchers wanted to see if these results were just an oddity of keeping bees in observation hives, and whether they would find similar symmetry in other species of honey bees (genus Apis). To answer whether this pattern would also exist in multiple-comb nests, such as honey bees build in the wild, the researchers took images of “natural comb” from 3-dimensional nests, where the bees were free to build their combs from scratch (i.e., no artificial comb templates provided, like beekeepers would typically use). This, however, created a problem, as the colonies generated a massive amount of data. Through a collaboration with Dr. Ben Koger, Assistant Professor at the University of Wyoming, they were able to develop an automated method for classifying per-cell contents from an image. Honey bees secretly stockpile structures symmetrically. Credit: Peter Marting “This is a great example of how biological questions can be merged with new techniques from computer science. While technically you could do this by hand, it would take so much time, that it’s just not practical,” said Koger. Comparing the two sides of the comb, yet again, they found that the bees stockpiled each comb symmetrically. “The combs are not interchangeable across colonies, or even within the same colony. Each one is symmetrical, creating a type of internal symmetry within their nest architecture,” said Smith. “Students in the lab kept saying that we had to finish up the project, but as a long-shot, I wanted to see if we could also find the same type of symmetry in other species of Apis. Fortunately, we have a great collaborator in Thailand,” noted Smith. Dr. Bajaree Chuttong, from Chiang Mai University in Thailand, happened to have just what they needed – images of both sides of natural nests, from multiple honey bee species (Apis andreniformis, Apis dorsata, and Apis florea). When they compared both sides of each nest, they found that all these species also stockpiled their nests symmetrically. This told the researchers that this architectural symmetry was not limited to the Western honey bee. All species of honey bees build double-sided comb, and all of them organize their nest contents symmetrically on either side of the comb. Presumably, during the earliest evolution of Apis nest architecture, workers built double-sided comb to conserve wax, but this also provided a thermoregulatory benefit for rearing brood, and shows a novel benefit of creating symmetry, this time in the internal nest architecture of the honey bee.

Two of the genes—Gsta4 in red and Cyp4a14 in green—that are more active in female mouse kidneys (blue). Credit: Jing Liu/McMahon Lab Researchers found that lowering testosterone in male mice feminizes kidneys, improving resilience to disease. These findings may help address sex-related kidney health disparities. Kidneys in females have been observed to be more resistant to disease and damage. However, males need not despair. Recent research led by USC Stem Cell and published in Developmental Cell sheds light on how gender hormones influence the variations in kidney resilience between male and female mice. The study also illustrates that reducing testosterone levels can “feminize” the kidney in males, potentially enhancing its capacity to withstand ailments and injuries. “By exploring how differences emerge in male and female kidneys during development, we can better understand how to address sex-related health disparities for patients with kidney diseases,” said Professor Andy McMahon, the study’s corresponding author, and the director of the Eli and Edythe Broad Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. Key Gene Activity Differences in Male and Female Kidneys First authors Lingyun “Ivy” Xiong and Jing Liu from the McMahon Lab and their collaborators identified more than 1,000 genes with different levels of activity in male and female mouse kidneys, in a study supported by the National Institutes of Health. The differences were most evident in the section of the kidney’s filtering unit known as the proximal tubule, responsible for reabsorbing most of the nutrients such as glucose and amino acids back into the bloodstream. Most of these sex differences in gene activity emerged as the mice entered puberty and became even more pronounced as they reached sexual maturity. Because female kidneys tend to fare better in the face of disease or injury, the researchers were interested in how the gene activity of kidneys becomes “feminized” or “masculinized”—and testosterone appeared to be the biggest culprit. To feminize the kidneys of male mice, two strategies worked equally well: castrating males before puberty and thus lowering their natural testosterone levels, or removing the cellular sensors known as androgen receptors that respond to male sex hormones. Calorie Restriction: A Surprising Influence on Kidney Health Intriguingly, three months of calorie restriction—which is an indirect way to lower testosterone—produced a similar effect. Accordingly, calorie restriction has already been shown to mitigate certain types of kidney injuries in mice. To re-masculinize the kidneys of the castrated males, the researchers only needed to inject testosterone. Similarly, testosterone injection masculinized the kidneys of females who had their ovaries removed before puberty. Sex Differences in Other Organs The scientists performed some similar experiments with mouse livers. Although this organ also displays sex-related differences, the hormones and underlying factors driving these differences are very different than those at play in the kidney. This suggests that these sex-related organ differences emerged independently during evolution. To test whether the same genes are involved in sex-related kidney differences in humans, the scientists analyzed a limited number of male and female donor kidneys and biopsies. When it came to genes that differed in their activity between the sexes, there was a modest overlap of the human genes with the mouse genes. “There is much more work to be done in studying sex-related differences in normal human kidneys,” said McMahon. “Given the divergent outcomes for male and female patients with kidney disease and injury, this line of inquiry is important for making progress toward eventually closing the gap on these sex-related health disparities.” Reference: “Direct androgen receptor control of sexually dimorphic gene expression in the mammalian kidney” by Lingyun Xiong, Jing Liu, Seung Yub Han, Kari Koppitch, Jin-Jin Guo, Megan Rommelfanger, Zhen Miao, Fan Gao, Ingileif B.

A study by Duke University discovered that a mindset of curiosity can enhance memory, shown through a virtual art museum game where participants playing as ‘curious’ thieves scouting for a future heist remembered more artworks than those who acted as ‘urgent’ thieves carrying out a heist. The researchers suggest that shifting from a high-pressure mindset to a curious one could be applied to encourage real-world actions like vaccination uptake and climate change action, as well as improve therapy treatments. The act of pretending to be an art thief supercharges people’s memory of paintings, thanks to their heightened curiosity. Adopting a curious mindset over a high-pressure one can enhance memory, according to recent research from Duke University. The study showed that participants who envisioned themselves as a thief planning a heist in a virtual art museum demonstrated better recall of the paintings they encountered than those who imagined executing the heist on the spot while playing the same computer game. The slight variation in motivations — the urgent need to achieve immediate goals versus the curious exploration for future objectives — could have significant implications in real-life scenarios. These include incentivizing people to receive a vaccine, prompting action against climate change, and potentially providing new treatments for psychiatric conditions. The findings were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Alyssa Sinclair, Ph.D. ’23, a postdoctoral researcher working in the lab of Duke Institute for Brain Sciences director Alison Adcock, Ph.D., M.D., recruited 420 adults to pretend to be art thieves for a day. The participants were then randomly assigned to one of two groups and received different backstories. “For the urgent group, we told them, ‘You’re a master thief, you’re doing the heist right now. Steal as much as you can!’,” Sinclair said. “Whereas for the curious group, we told them they were a thief who’s scouting the museum to plan a future heist.” After getting these different backstories, however, participants in the two groups played the exact same computer game, scored the exact same way. They explored an art museum with four colored doors, representing different rooms, and clicked on a door to reveal a painting from the room and its value. Some rooms held more valuable collections of art. No matter which scenario they were pretending to be in, everyone earned real bonus money by finding more valuable paintings. “Watch out for the security guard!” A video of the computer game shows how participants chose between four different colored doors to reveal different paintings (and their value). Participants had to avoid being spotted by a security guard by quickly pressing space bar when he popped up, as an attention check. Credit: Alyssa Sinclair – Duke Institute for Brain Sciences Memory vs. Efficiency: Different Outcomes Based on Mindset The impact of this difference in mindset was most apparent the following day. When participants logged back in, they were met with a pop quiz about whether they could recognize 175 different paintings (100 from the day before, and 75 new ones). If participants flagged a painting as familiar, they also had to recall how much it was worth. Sinclair and her co-author, fellow Duke psychology & neuroscience graduate student Candice Yuxi Wang, were gratified after they graded the tests to see if their predictions had played out­­. “The curious group participants who imagined planning a heist had better memory the next day,” Sinclair said. “They correctly recognized more paintings. They remembered how much each painting was worth. And reward boosted memory, so valuable paintings were more likely to be remembered. But we didn’t see that in the urgent group participants who imagined executing the heist.” Urgent group participants, however, had a different advantage. They were better at figuring out which doors hid more expensive pieces, and as a result, snagged more high-value paintings. Their stash was appraised at about $230 more than the curious participants’ collection. The difference in strategies (curious versus urgent) and their outcomes (better memory versus higher-valued paintings) doesn’t mean one is better than the other, though. “It’s valuable to learn which mode is adaptive in a given moment and use it strategically,” Dr. Adcock said. For example, being in an urgent, high-pressure mode might be the best option for a short-term problem. “If you’re on a hike and there’s a bear, you don’t want to be thinking about long-term planning,” Sinclair said. “You need to focus on getting out of there right now.” Opting for an urgent mindset might also be useful in less grisly scenarios that require short-term focus, Sinclair explained, like prompting people to get a covid vaccine. For encouraging long-term memory or action, stressing people out is less effective. “Sometimes you want to motivate people to seek information and remember it in the future, which might have longer-term consequences for lifestyle changes,” Sinclair said. “Maybe for that, you need to put them in a curious mode so that they can actually retain that information.” How Urgency and Curiosity Affect Brain Function Sinclair and Wang are now following up on these findings to see how urgency and curiosity activate different parts of the brain. Early evidence suggests that by engaging the amygdala, an almond-shaped brain region best known for its role in fear memory, “urgent mode” helps form focused, efficient memories. Curious exploration, however, seems to shuttle the learning-enhancing neurochemical dopamine to the hippocampus, a brain region crucial for forming detailed long-term memories. With these brain results in mind, Dr. Adcock is exploring how her lab’s research might also benefit the patients she sees as a psychiatrist. “Most of adult psychotherapy is about how we encourage flexibility, like with curious mode,” Dr. Adcock said. “But it’s much harder for people to do since we spend a lot of our adult lives in an urgency mode.” These thought exercises may give people the ability to manipulate their own neurochemical spigots and develop “psychological maneuvers,” or cues that act similar to pharmaceuticals, Dr. Adcock explained. “For me, the ultimate goal would be to teach people to do this for themselves,” Dr. Adcock said. “That’s empowering.” Reference: “Instructed motivational states bias reinforcement learning and memory formation” by Alyssa H.
