Medical Xpress / Immune cell–fibroblast crosstalk may be the key trigger of autoimmune diseases
In autoimmune disorders, immune cells targeting "self" proteins are mistakenly activated, resulting in abnormal expansion and responsiveness. These disorders are known to reduce patients' quality of life over a prolonged ...
Phys.org / Experiment upends beliefs on how electrons actually behave in warm dense matter
Researchers at European XFEL, Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), Rostock University and other collaborating institutions have used high-precision experiments to demonstrate that the most widely used models for the ...
Phys.org / Drifting tuna gear creates risks for wildlife in protected marine areas
An international study co-authored by a University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researcher has found that drifting devices used by the global tuna fishing industry are entering marine protected areas around the world, creating potential ...
Phys.org / Floods kill two in Taiwan as twin storms approach Japan
Japan advised more than a million people to leave their homes as two tropical storms swept toward the archipelago Friday, with torrential rain also pounding Taiwan, where at least two people have been killed.
Phys.org / Economic and environmental benefits of regenerative agriculture vary widely across farms and regions
Regenerative agriculture can deliver both economic and environmental benefits for European farmers, Wageningen University & Research (WUR) concludes in the research project Regenomics. Whether these benefits are actually ...
Phys.org / Did gravitational tides cause Earth's extinctions?
Life on Earth took a long evolutionary journey that eventually created us, the purportedly intelligent species that dominates the planet. But there was no grand plan or design, only happenstance, nature and luck. Life on ...
Medical Xpress / New role of PTGES3 uncovered in liver cancer growth and immune evasion
A research team led by Prof. Wang Hongzhi at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has found a novel role of prostaglandin E synthase 3 (PTGES3) in liver cancer, revealing how it drives both ...
Medical Xpress / Green power: How spinach and kale could cut risk of chronic lung disease
Eating your greens could be the secret to breathing easier, with a new study from Edith Cowan University (ECU) revealing that people who eat more vitamin K1-rich foods such as leafy green vegetables may lower their risk of ...
Phys.org / Bow-and-arrow-shaped radio galaxy discovered by citizen scientist
Astronomers have discovered a "remarkable" bow-and-arrow-shaped radio galaxy with an enormous arc-like structure extending nearly 1.8 million light-years across. The newly identified system, detailed in a new paper published ...
Phys.org / Scientists design 'tunable' biomolecules to probe how sugars behave
Sugars are not just a source of energy—they also play a crucial role in how cells communicate, how proteins interact and how materials behave in medicine and industry. But studying these processes is challenging because sugar ...
Phys.org / Europe heat wave shattering temperature records
Europe's heat wave has smashed several temperature records, the U.N.'s weather and climate agency said Friday, adding that it would determine the full impact once the phenomenon has ended.
Phys.org / Plasma approach keeps catalysts working for longer in hydrogen production
Scientists from the University of Manchester have shown how a plasma-based approach, using nonthermal plasma—an electrically energized gas often described as the fourth state of matter—can prevent catalyst deactivation in ...
