New sensor to detect early-stage lymphedema could spare thousands of patients a year

A sensor created by Johns Hopkins University graduate students to detect very early-stage lymphedema could spare thousands of patients a year, many women with breast cancer, from the painful, debilitating condition.

Study shows how Schrenkiella parvula develops faster under stressful conditions

Most plants strive to preserve resources when they are exposed to circumstances that are excessively dry, salty, or cold.

Researchers propose a new fusion method in gene editing to reduce DNA sizes

Researchers who are working on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene-editing technology have developed a technique to boost editing performance by reducing DNA deletion sizes.

Researchers analyze the significance of two-pore channels in plant cells

TPCs (two-pore channels) are old ion channels found in both animal and plant cells. These ion channels serve key roles in biological activity in numerous tissues in animals, including humans, like the brain and nervous system.

Study shows how nanotechnology may help for structural research of RNA molecules

Humans live in a world created and managed by RNA—the genetic molecule DNA’s equally important sibling.

New research offers the most insight on the genetic basis of schizophrenia

According to the World Health Organization, schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric condition that begins in late adolescence or early adulthood and affects one in every 300 persons globally.

Researchers analyze immune system genetic diversity, likely to affect endangered toad existence

The immune system diversity of the critically endangered Wyoming toad is examined in new research, which indicates that genetic bottlenecks can affect a species’ capabilities to react to novel infections.

Study reveals genetic architecture of COVID-19 risk factors and disease complications

According to a recent study of information from the Veterans Affairs Million Veteran Program, there are genetic correlations between COVID-19 severity and specific medical disorders that are established risk factors for severe COVID-19.

Scientists get a clearer and more accurate image of proteins

Proteins are among the most significant and diverse biomolecules found in living organisms. These strings of amino acids, which take on complex 3-dimensional structures, are required for tissue growth and maintenance, the activation of thousands of biochemical events, and the immune system’s defense against invaders.

‘Extreme’ plant grows faster under stressful conditions

When faced with conditions that are too dry, salty, or cold, most plants try to conserve resources. They send out fewer leaves and roots and close up their pores to hold in water. If circumstances don't improve, they eventually die.

Dolphin capture rates are not sustainable, study shows

An international team of researchers have developed a method to assess sustainable levels of human-caused wildlife mortality, which when applied to a trawl fishery shows that dolphin capture is not sustainable.

Gene expression signatures in lymph node cells play an active role in lymphoma development

Researchers from the University of Tsukuba identify gene expression signatures in different types of lymph nodes cells that play an active role in the development of lymphomas.

Scientists reveal how autism-linked genetic mutation disrupts neural development using mini-brains

In a study published May 02, 2022 in Nature Communications, scientists at University of California San Diego School of Medicine used human brain organoids to reveal how a genetic mutation associated with a profound form of autism disrupts neural development.

The brain learns completely differently than previously assumed, researchers say

The brain is a complex network containing billions of neurons. Each of these neurons communicates simultaneously with thousands of others via their synapses (links), and collects incoming signals through several extremely long, branched "arms", called dendritic trees.
