With high input costs and volatile crop markets affecting profitability, many Tennessee row crop producers are looking to diversify their farming operations in coming years. Canola, a cool-season crop, could serve as an alternative ...
Medical Xpress / The same sounds are mapped similarly in the human and mouse brain, study finds
While exploring the world around them, both humans and other animals continuously interpret information they pick up with their sight, hearing, touch and other senses. Neuroscience research suggests that the brain does not ...
Medical Xpress / Immune cells use previously unknown pathway to eliminate acute myeloid leukemia
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered a new way in which T cells attack acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, which may help explain why AML is particularly sensitive to immune-based ...
Medical Xpress / Microbiota dysbiosis triggers intestinal cancer stemness
Scientists at National Taiwan University College of Medicine have discovered that cancer formation is not simply caused by gene mutations. Colorectal cancers primarily originate from epithelial cells that form adenocarcinomas ...
