Dune Messiah Meaning: The Warning We Keep Ignoring

Too many people misread Dune.

They walked out of Part One and Part Two inspired. Ready to cheer for Paul Atreides. Ready to root for the underdog against the empire.

They saw exactly what Frank Herbert was afraid they would see.

Dune is not about resilience. It is not a hero’s journey. It is not an invitation to find your inner messiah.

According to Herbert himself, Dune is a warning against charismatic leadership — not an example of it.

The liberation movement becomes the next oppressor. The just cause fuses with a messiah myth and stops being just. And the sequels go to places most audiences never expected — and most film fans have never encountered.

Ca2+-phospholipid-dependent regulation of Munc13-1 is essential for post-tetanic potentiation at mossy fiber synapses and supports working memory

López-Murcia et al. demonstrate that Ca2+-dependent regulation of the vesicle-priming protein Munc13-1 supports synaptic short-term facilitation and post-tetanic potentiation at hippocampal mossy fiber synapses. Disruption of this regulatory mechanism is associated with impaired working memory formation.
