A new preclinical study from Weill Cornell Medicine found that the protein caspase-5 (CASP5), long thought to be a foot soldier in the body's defense against bacterial infection, does not actually help clear invaders the ...
Phys.org / Hawaiian green sea turtles emerge as reef defenders against invasive algae
An invasive algae already well-established in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands is raising concern among researchers as it threatens to spread into the main Hawaiian Islands. Scientists from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa ...
Medical Xpress / Sex differences in brain gene activity could explain why some disorders affect men and women differently
The physical differences between men and women are all too obvious, but the biological divide goes right down to the cellular level in the brain, according to a new study published in the journal Science.
Medical Xpress / Common drug fails to ease knee osteoarthritis pain in largest trial yet
The University of Tasmania's Menzies Institute for Medical Research has found that the commonly prescribed medication, Diacerein, does not improve knee osteoarthritis symptoms, following a national study. Diacerein, a medication ...
