Phys.org / Researchers uncover gut-liver serotonin pathway that limits nanoparticle and viral delivery
A new study has for the first time elucidated the gut-liver immune regulatory axis jointly maintained by intestinal commensal bacteria and the intestinal endocrine system, and uncovered the fundamental mechanism underlying ...
Medical Xpress / Open-access predictive tool could improve monitoring of smoldering multiple myeloma
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute investigators have developed an online, easy-to-use tool that more accurately predicts when a precursor blood condition called smoldering multiple myeloma is likely to turn into active cancer ...
Medical Xpress / B-type natriuretic peptide shows promise as a predictor of kidney disease progression in diabetes
The relationship between cardiovascular dysfunction and renal impairment is widely recognized as the cardiorenal interaction, a complex physiological link in which damage to one organ can accelerate deterioration in the other. ...
Phys.org / Vital freshwater fish migrations are collapsing, says UN report
Some of the longest, most important migrations of species on Earth are happening beneath the surface of the world's rivers and many are rapidly collapsing, according to a major new assessment by the Convention on the Conservation ...
Medical Xpress / Widespread temptations bad news for people with a high risk of diabetes, says study
Type 2 diabetes is often triggered by a sedentary lifestyle or poor diet. At the same time, however, some people have genes that make it much more likely they will develop the disease. In other words, they are far more susceptible ...
Tech Xplore / A faster route to solid-state batteries? Ultrasonic welding creates lithium-garnet interface in seconds
Bonding lithium metal to a ceramic surface should be a dream team combination for creating solid-state lithium metal batteries. However, getting them to bond is the hard part. Impurity layers tend to form on the surface, ...
Phys.org / A catalyst-free way to add boron to arenes
RIKEN chemists have demonstrated a method to synthesize organic compounds that contain the element boron. Organoboron compounds are used in a wide range of drugs, including those for treating cancer, fungal infections and ...
Tech Xplore / New detector chip compresses X-ray data 100- to 200-fold in real time
Every second, scientific experiments produce a flood of data—so much that transmitting and analyzing it can slow down even the most advanced research. To help scientists better manage this data deluge, researchers at the ...
Phys.org / 'Miracle': Europe reconnects with lost spacecraft
The European Space Agency announced Thursday it has re-established communication with a spacecraft that is part of its Proba-3 mission, after losing contact with the satellite a month ago.
Phys.org / New controls can stretch, blur and even reverse quantum time flow
In new research published in Physical Review X, scientists have designed quantum control protocols that generate processes more consistent with time flowing backward than forward. The protocols—techniques to control quantum ...
Medical Xpress / Online intervention helps cancer patients share genetic testing results with family
When a person with cancer finds out they carry an inherited genetic variant that puts them at higher risk of cancer, the results can help inform their treatment or steps to prevent additional cancer.
Phys.org / Iron-substituted MoOₓ catalyst boosts oxygen evolution for alkaline water electrolysis
A Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) research team, led by Dr. Dahee Park at the Hydrogen Energy Materials Research Center, has successfully developed a high-performance catalyst that significantly enhances the oxygen ...
