Research shows DLX2 protein regenerate astrocytes into neural stem-like cells

A single protein may turn adult brain cells termed astrocytes into stem-like cells that create neurons and other cell types, according to UT Southwestern researchers.

Proximity-dependent biotinylation helps analyze protein interaction

Protein degraders, which cause target proteins to break down, are thought to be the “next-generation drugs” because they may eliminate disease-causing proteins from cells.

Placenta plays an active role in the delivery of maternal vitamin D to the fetus

Scientists have shed new light on the role of the placenta in managing the relationships between maternal vitamin D and fetal development, according to a study published today in eLife.

Discovery provides new insights into the understanding of tolerance to endotoxic death

Sepsis is a high-mortality disease that arises when the body's immune reaction to pathogens causes multi-organ defects.

New tools for measuring the biological ages of various organ systems

It's common to say that someone looks either younger or older than their chronological age, but aging is more than skin deep.

Unusual partners aid new blood vessel development

Insufficient oxygen to an area like the heart or legs, called hypoxia, is a cue to our bodies to make more blood vessels, and scientists have found some unusual partners are key to making that happen.

Confocal laser scanning microscopy captures high-resolution 3D images of cell division in microalgae

Cell division ensures growth or renewal and is thus vital for all organisms. However, the process differs somewhat in animals, bacteria, fungi, plants, and algae.

Tweaking carotenoids found to improve plant growth and increase yield

Manipulating the content of carotenoids, such as ß-carotene, has been found to improve plant growth and increase yield and tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity.

Specific gene variant linked with poor response to sublingual immunotherapy for allergies

Although sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) has become an effective treatment option for many allergies, about 20-30% of patients don’t respond to SLIT for Japanese cedar pollinosis–a highly common disease.

Experts provide novel insights into complex sugar metabolism

The accurate mechanism of action of a β-1,2-glucan-associated enzyme has been determined by Japanese researchers.

Scientists use AI to predict algae's potential as alternative energy source

Texas A&M AgriLife Research scientists are using artificial intelligence to set a new world record for producing algae as a reliable, economic source for biofuel that can be used as an alternative fuel source for jet aircraft and other transportation needs.

Study shows how the release of T-cell cytokine combined with fatty acid leads to ferroptosis

Researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center found that a cytokine, a category of protein that acts as messengers in the body, and a fatty acid can work together to trigger a type of cell death previously defined by studies with synthetic molecules.

Research points to a common thread linking diverse neurodegenerative diseases

Take a cell-deep tour of a brain afflicted with Alzheimer's disease, and you will find minuscule clumps of protein that seem suspicious. Ever since the 1980s, when neuroscientists began identifying these protein tangles, researchers have discovered that other brain diseases have their own tangled-protein signatures.

New technique controls gene activity without altering the DNA sequence of the genome

By combining CRISPR technology with a protein designed with artificial intelligence, it is possible to awaken individual dormant genes by disabling the chemical "off switches" that silence them.

Researchers use lipid profiling to determine risk for diabetes and cardiovascular diseases

According to a new study, simultaneous measurement of dozens of types of fats in the blood known as “lipidomics”, can predict the risk of type 2 diabetes.

7 Mar 2022

Researchers develop new method to detect the role of enigmatic gene sequences

Karolinska Institute researchers have recently developed new high-precision techniques for determining the role of these noncoding sequences.
