Cedars-Sinai investigators may have figured out why certain immunosuppressive treatments don't work well in rheumatoid arthritis. In a study published in Science Immunology, scientists trace the problem to specific changes ...
Phys.org / What meadows reveal about the future: Spatial data can predict biodiversity loss before species disappear
Meadows once teeming with buzzing insects and colorful plants are quietly losing their diversity. But how fast is this change happening and can we detect it before species disappear? A German-Swiss research team led by Professor ...
Phys.org / New microprotein can help cancer cells overcome stress
In a study published in the journal Nucleic Acid Research, a research team at Karolinska Institutet has performed a large-scale genetic screen to uncover the hidden roles of tiny proteins, so-called microproteins.
Medical Xpress / How a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function
Scientists have discovered how a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial disorders, which often lead to severe disability and death. They have discovered that this single ...
Medical Xpress / New federal loan caps could disrupt the medical field
Researchers from the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute have produced the first national estimate of how many medical students would be affected by new federal loan restrictions imposed by the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill ...

Phys.org / Old air samples hint at effects of climate change
Through DNA analysis of old air samples collected by the Swedish Armed Forces, researchers at Lund University in Sweden can show that spore dispersal of northern mosses has shifted over the past 35 years. It now starts several ...
Medical Xpress / Data-driven surgical supply lists can reduce hospital costs and waste
Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine, in collaboration with Data Science Alliance, a nonprofit promoting the importance of a responsible science environment, led a study showing that hospitals ...
Phys.org / From inhibition to destruction: Kinase drugs found to trigger protein degradation
Protein kinases are the molecular switches of the cell. They control growth, division, communication, and survival by attaching phosphate groups to other proteins. When these switches are stuck in the "on" position, they ...
