  • Genome-wide analyses identify 30 independent loci associated with obsessive–compulsive disorder, highlighting genetic overlap with other psychiatric disorders and implicating putative effector genes and cell types contributing to its etiology.

  • Shen et al. identify a noncanonical role for the inflammasome protein NLR family CARD ___domain-containing protein 4 (NLRC4) to attenuate tumor development. NLRC4 forms a scaffold to assemble the ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related DNA repair complex and the repair kinase checkpoint kinase-1 to promote repair of DNA breaks.

  • Experiments performed in the CERN CLOUD chamber show that, under upper-tropospheric conditions, new atmospheric particle formation may be initiated by the reaction of hydroxyl radicals with isoprene emitted by rainforests.

  • An analysis of 24,202 critical cases of COVID-19 identifies potentially druggable targets in inflammatory signalling (JAK1), monocyte–macrophage activation and endothelial permeability (PDE4A), immunometabolism (SLC2A5 and AK5), and host factors required for viral entry and replication (TMPRSS2 and RAB2A).

  • A global network of researchers was formed to investigate the role of human genetics in SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 severity; this paper reports 13 genome-wide significant loci and potentially actionable mechanisms in response to infection.

  • Whole-genome sequencing, transcriptome-wide association and fine-mapping analyses in over 7,000 individuals with critical COVID-19 are used to identify 16 independent variants that are associated with severe illness in COVID-19.

  • A genome-wide association study of critically ill patients with COVID-19 identifies genetic signals that relate to important host antiviral defence mechanisms and mediators of inflammatory organ damage that may be targeted by repurposing drug treatments.

  • Impacts of enhanced cosmic radiation from a nearby supernova on Earth’s biosphere would be limited by compensating effects in ozone catalytic chemical cycles and the resulting increase in cloud and aerosol abundance, according to Earth system modelling.
