Zhejiang University School of Medicine in China, along with American researchers, has found no link between late-life intake of sugar or artificially-sweetened beverages and all-cause dementia in older U.S. adults.

Capstan Therapeutics scientists demonstrate that lipid nanoparticles can engineer CAR T cells within the body without laboratory cell manufacturing and ex vivo expansion. The method using targeted lipid nanoparticles (tLNPs) ...

Institut Curie researchers have identified a sex-specific molecular pathway connecting E-cadherin loss, estrogen receptor-α (ERα), and GRPR, contributing significantly to increased melanoma metastasis in women.

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics have developed a novel synthetic micropeptide termed the "killswitch" to selectively immobilize proteins within cellular condensates, unveiling crucial connections ...

A research team led by Occidental College has identified a previously unknown symbiosis; deep sea spiders that cultivate and feed on bacteria that oxidize methane.

Boston Children's Hospital scientists have unveiled a five-day approach to generate functional vascular organoids capable of supporting blood flow and in vivo engraftment.

Brain death determination sits at the fraught intersection of critical-care medicine, ethics, and organ-donation logistics. Missteps risk either prolonging mechanical support with no prospect of recovery or declaring death ...

Investigators at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology report walking more than 100 minutes per day was associated with a 23% lower risk of chronic low back pain.

Children on the autism spectrum, often at odds with their own emotions, may find help in an unlikely place: their own inner voice. A team from the University of Pittsburgh and collaborators tested a novel intervention designed ...

Scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have identified 4,208 previously unannotated open reading frames (ORFs) across 679 human-associated viral genomes using a high-throughput method called massively parallel ...

Stanford University researchers report the discovery of eight previously unknown genes that, when expressed in tobacco leaves, reconstitute the Taxol precursor baccatin III at levels matching its natural abundance in yew ...

Stony Brook University-led researchers tracked post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms in more than 12,000 World Trade Center responders for 20 years and found that recovery was often delayed, non-linear and incomplete.

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center researchers have identified a metabolic switch that determines whether intestinal stem cells become absorptive or secretory cells. Manipulating the enzyme OGDH either fuels cell expansion ...

The Mediterranean Institute for Advanced Studies (UIB-CSIC) reports that thrush bones discarded in a Roman cesspit at Pollentia reveal the songbirds were routine street food rather than an elite rarity.

Erythritol may impair cellular functions essential to maintaining brain blood vessel health, according to researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder. Findings suggest that erythritol increases oxidative stress, disrupts ...
