Medical Xpress / Immune cell circuit restores barrier function in inflammatory bowel disease
Scientists have discovered a new protective communication circuit between specialized immune cells in the intestines, a circuit that may be therapeutically targeted to improve inflammatory bowel disease outcomes, according ...
Medical Xpress / Many cancers originate from a single cancer cell and evolve through early bursts of chromosome changes
A comprehensive multi-cancer study by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has revealed that cancer cells within tumors are genetically diverse, yet all carry the same core genetic changes that ...
Phys.org / Silicon-compatible nanocomposite garnet enables better, simpler optical isolators
A research team from Tohoku University and Kyocera Corp. has developed a new magneto-optical material—a nanocomposite magnetic garnet film—that can be deposited directly onto silicon substrates while delivering a magneto-optical ...
Phys.org / Seaweed farming offers climate benefits, but regulatory gaps pose risks
From sea lettuce adorning tidal pools and bull kelp left in windrows at the high tide line to towering underwater forests of giant kelp providing refuge and food for countless species, British Columbia's seaweeds are both ...
Medical Xpress / Gene mutations may explain some spontaneous spinal fluid leaks
Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University and Johns Hopkins University have identified genetic mutations that may explain why some people develop a spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak in the spine. The ...
Phys.org / S-M-A-R-T! These researchers used math to crack Wordle
Every day, millions of people play Wordle, the popular New York Times game that challenges users to guess a secret five-letter word. Using information theory, a team of researchers at Binghamton University, State University ...
Phys.org / Chandra tracks M87 black hole's evolving jet in finest X-ray detail yet
An international team of astronomers led by Camille Poitras, a Ph.D. student in the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Laval University, has produced the most detailed X-ray view ever obtained of the jet launched by the ...
Phys.org / Emergency department visits increased during and after Aliso Canyon gas blowout
Emergency department use rose significantly during and after the 2015–16 Aliso Canyon gas blowout, according to a new paper from the UCLA Aliso Canyon Disaster Health Research Study. Data showed that people living downwind ...
Phys.org / Distant ocean temperatures found to influence snowfall in Antarctica
Snowfall deep inside East Antarctica has increased in recent decades, and distant ocean temperature changes may be partly responsible. Using long-term climate data and observations from Dome Fuji station, researchers found ...
Phys.org / New method enables accurate sequencing of short peptides hidden in food and human body
Our food and our bodies are full of tiny protein fragments called peptides. These small chains of amino acids act as biological messengers, influencing processes ranging from sensory perception to physiological functions.
Phys.org / Observation of living cells solves mystery of bacterial cell division
Using an innovative combination of biochemical experiments and ultra-high-resolution microscopy, a research team at Kiel University has solved the long-standing mystery of how the bacterium B. subtilis regulates its cell ...
Phys.org / 'High-res' is the secret to finding alien life with the next great space telescope
We're still in the definition phase of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), but it seems like every week a new research group comes out with a paper helping to shape what is becoming one of the most important space telescopes ...
