A research team composed of plant virologists from the Plant Virus Department at Leibniz Institute DSMZ-German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures, the Italian National Research Council and BASF-Nunhems Italy, ...
Medical Xpress / Cloaked stem cells evade immune rejection in mice, pointing to a potential universal donor cell line
A study published in Stem Cell Reports demonstrates that genetically engineered human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) can overcome immune rejection in mice with humanized immune systems, surviving for five months in a stringent ...
Phys.org / Punch the orphan macaque is outgrowing his plushie and making friends
Punch the baby orphan macaque is outgrowing the orangutan plushie that comforted him through early rejection from his mother and other monkeys.
Phys.org / When populist rhetoric is high, entrepreneurs are more likely to dodge taxes
A new study finds that the greater the amount of populist rhetoric in a nation, the less likely entrepreneurs are to register their businesses—dodging both taxes and government regulations. "Populist rhetoric refers to ...
Phys.org / Paleontologists investigate how life entered and adapted to the deep sea
The deep sea is a dark, cold place. It's just a few degrees above freezing, subject to immense pressure, and beyond the reach of the sunlight needed for photosynthesis. The life that does survive in such a hostile place must ...
Phys.org / Tech upgrade reveals even finer transcription detail inside cells
In 2021, a technology developed at the University of Michigan, called Seq-Scope, revolutionized the ability to map gene activity within intact tissue at microscopic resolution, enabling researchers to measure all expressed ...
Phys.org / Tiny flows, big insights: Microfluidics system boosts super-resolution microscopy
Understanding how cells are organized and how their molecular components interact in a coordinated and cooperative manner is a central goal of modern life sciences. To answer these questions, researchers need to observe many ...
Medical Xpress / Smartphone health care app features help motivate users to increase physical activity
Smartphone health care applications are widely used to support weight management and broader lifestyle improvement. However, many existing apps primarily emphasize dietary tracking and feedback, while offering relatively ...
Phys.org / El Nino may return in 2026 and make planet even hotter
The warming El Niño weather phenomenon could form later this year, potentially pushing global temperatures to record heights.
Phys.org / The key to attacking 'undruggable' proteins: Transient clustering state reveals a moving target
Intrinsically disordered proteins lack a fixed structure, which is why they have been considered "undruggable" targets for drug development for years. However, these proteins play a key role in numerous diseases—ranging ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds telemedicine surge barely changed rural mental health access
During the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health specialists started using telemedicine much more frequently. Despite many benefits, a new study finds that virtual visits did not make it easier for psychiatrists, psychologists ...
Phys.org / Intermediate phases unlock faster nanoparticle crystallization
Crystalline nanomaterials are valuable because their highly ordered structures give them useful properties for technologies such as data storage and optical devices. But forming nanoparticles from those orderly crystals is ...
