Human cells absorb less protein from plant-based meat than from chicken

Protein-rich plants, like soybeans, are common ingredients, but it is unknown how much of the nutrient gets absorbed in human cells.

Researchers reveal how blood serum impacts the survival and metabolism of bacteria

In hospitals, the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria can be transported from the skin or nasal cavity into open wounds and, possibly, the bloodstream, posing a fatal hazard. Staph infections killed over 20,000 Americans in 2017, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Axol Bioscience introduces CiPA-validated human stem cell-derived ventricular cardiomyocytes to help improve drug discovery

Axol Bioscience Ltd. (Axol), an established provider of iPSC-derived cells, media, and characterization services for life science discovery, today announced that its human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived ventricular cardiomyocytes have undergone comprehensive in vitro pro-arrhythmia assay (CiPA) validation.

Research shows how current drugs impact bacterial physiology

Tuberculosis is a stubborn disease caused by even more stubborn bacteria. While many bacterial infections clear up within days of taking antibiotics, TB can take up to six months to clear up and, in some cases, never leave the human body. In 2020, it claimed 1.5 million lives, second only to COVID-19 in terms of infectious disease deaths.

Study highlights the interaction between single-stranded DNA and the linker histone H1

Human DNA is neatly locked in place around a central disc in the tight quarters of the cell nucleus by H1 linker histone that helps shepherd DNA into the tidy chromatin fibers that make up chromosomes. The linker histone, on the other hand, is much more than a protein clip.

Researchers create human cornea-on-a-chip to check the therapeutic effect of MSC exosomes on corneal disorders

Ophthalmologists and researchers have been looking into mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with regenerative and differentiation capacities as a potential therapy option for corneal disorders.

Researchers analyze gut microbiome with dietary fiber through ecological model

Dietary fiber is known to be beneficial to gut health. However, it has a wide range of effects on the composition and metabolic activity of the gut microbiome.

Study shows polymersome can effectively deliver PARP1 siRNA to treat breast cancer

Small interfering RNAs, or siRNAs, have the potential to cure tumors by targeting knocking down oncogenes that drive tumor development while avoiding the damage associated with chemotherapy.

New research identifies a destination for zinc chaperone protein's deliveries

Most people don't think much about zinc. But all living things need zinc for survival. This trace element helps many proteins fold into the right shapes to do their jobs.

Research sheds light on new options for organ cultivation in vitro

How do human cells organize themselves to give the organs their ultimate shape? The solution is morphogenesis, a collection of systems that controls their spatial distribution throughout embryonic development. In this sector, a team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) recently discovered an unexpected discovery: when a tissue curves, the volume of the cells that makes it up grows rather than decreases.
