Medical Xpress / New study reveals widespread liver dysfunction in Down syndrome, suggests link to diet
Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Linda Crnic Institute for Down Syndrome (Crnic Institute) have uncovered compelling evidence that individuals with Down syndrome experience significant alterations in liver ...
Phys.org / AI method advances customized enzyme design
Enzymes with specific functions are becoming increasingly important in industry, medicine and environmental protection. For example, they make it possible to synthesize chemicals in a more environmentally friendly way, produce ...
Medical Xpress / Discovery illuminates how inflammatory bowel disease promotes colorectal cancer
A chain of immune reactions in the gut—driven by a key signaling protein and a surge of white blood cells from the bone marrow—may help explain why people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of colorectal ...
Medical Xpress / Cellular senescence linked to brain structure changes across lifespan
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain structure in both ...
Phys.org / The hidden microbial communities that shape health in space
Microorganisms live in biofilms—the equivalent of microbial "cities"—everywhere on Earth. These city-like structures protect and house microbial communities and play essential roles in enabling human and plant health ...
Tech Xplore / New method helps AI reason like humans without extra training data
A study led by UC Riverside researchers offers a practical fix to one of artificial intelligence's toughest challenges by enabling AI systems to reason more like humans—without requiring new training data beyond test questions.
Phys.org / Kenya's big cats under pressure: Cattle are pushing lions away
In the Kenyan savanna, lions and livestock essentially live in shifts: Cattle graze during the day and are enclosed at night when lions are active.
Phys.org / 3D mapping of fault beneath Marmara Sea reveals likely sites for future earthquakes
According to researchers from Science Tokyo, a new three-dimensional model of the fault beneath the Marmara Sea in Turkey reveals where a future major earthquake could take place. Using electromagnetic measurements, the team ...
Medical Xpress / Skin imaging scan can detect early signs of heart disease
Researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed "fast-RSOM," a new imaging technology that can capture detailed images of the smallest blood vessels directly through the skin—without ...
Medical Xpress / Breast cancer study reveals synergistic effect of CDK2 and CDK4/6 combination therapy
A new preclinical study from researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, published in Nature Communications, identifies a powerful strategy to overcome drug resistance in breast cancer by simultaneously ...
Medical Xpress / A new atlas could help guide researchers studying neurological disease
Functioning brain cells need a functioning system for picking up the trash and sorting the recycling. But when the cellular sanitation machines responsible for those tasks, called lysosomes, break down or get overwhelmed, ...
Phys.org / Increased soil salinity alters global inorganic carbon storage, finds study
A new global study shows that increasing soil salinity is systematically reshaping the storage and distribution of soil inorganic carbon (SIC), a key but often-overlooked part of terrestrial ecosystems. The findings, published ...
