Phys.org / Scientists map 3D structure of ZAK protein involved in cellular stress response
In an effort to reveal the inner workings of a protein that serves as a cell's damage detection system, scientists at Johns Hopkins and the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich (LMU) have published what is believed to be ...
Phys.org / How personalized algorithms lead to a distorted view of reality
The same personalized algorithms that deliver online content based on your previous choices on social media sites like YouTube also impair learning, a new study suggests.
Medical Xpress / Two parallel blood formation systems produce different immune and blood cells
It has only recently become known that two parallel systems of blood formation exist in the body, originating from different precursor cells. Researchers at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) have developed a method ...
Phys.org / Red spider nebula photo taken by Webb
Using its Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam), NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captured never-before-seen details of the Red Spider Nebula, a planetary nebula, in this image released on Oct. 26, 2025. NIRCam is Webb's primary ...
Medical Xpress / New protocol for Treg expansion uses targeted immunotherapy to reduce transplant complications
In preclinical studies, researchers found that priming the immune system with a Treg-expanding therapy before stem cell transplant boosted survival, protected vital organs, and promoted a balanced gut microbiome—offering ...
Phys.org / Scientists track recent solar flare disruptions in Earth's ionosphere
As this month's string of powerful X-class solar flares sparked brilliant auroras that lit up skies across an unusually wide swath of the globe—from northern Europe to Florida—researchers at NJIT's Center for Solar-Terrestrial ...
Phys.org / Three key pathways identified for scaling up actionable climate knowledge
There's no one-size-fits-all solution to adapting and building resilience to climate change, but a new study led by the University of Michigan offers three generalized pathways to help climate knowledge achieve its maximum ...
Phys.org / Magnetically reconfigurable ribbons let scientists 'program' liquids on demand
Materials Science and Engineering Department professor and UConn IMS resident faculty member, Xueju "Sophie" Wang's group has unveiled a simple but powerful way to control liquids: magnetically reconfigurable, multistable ...
Phys.org / How cancer cells tolerate missing chromosomes
A hallmark of cancerous cells is an abnormal number of chromosomes or chromosome arms, known as aneuploidy. While aneuploidy is detrimental to regular cells, it occurs in as many as 90% of tumors. How cancer cells tolerate ...
Medical Xpress / Rejuvenating the blood: New pharmacological strategy targets RhoA in hematopoietic stem cells
Aging is defined as the deterioration of function over time, and it is one of the main risk factors for numerous chronic diseases. Although aging is a complex phenomenon affecting the whole organism, it is proved that the ...
Medical Xpress / Shapeshifting tumors unmasked: New insights into master regulators reveal therapeutic vulnerabilities
Some tumors are almost impossible to treat. That's especially true for carcinomas, which don't behave like other malignancies. Some of these tumors act as shapeshifters and start to resemble cells from other organs of the ...
Phys.org / Unique aquatic plant has three concurrent CO₂-concentrating mechanisms
A new study led by the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (WBG, CAS) has identified a unique trait in the aquatic plant Ottelia alismoides—it can simultaneously employ three distinct CO₂-concentrating ...
