Medical Xpress / How melanoma silences the skin's natural antitumor defense
Cancers actively remodel their surrounding cells and tissues to create a microenvironment that favors their growth, survival and spread. Melanoma, a cancer of the pigment-producing melanocytes of the skin, is one of the most ...
Medical Xpress / Computer vision 'sees' our organs age at different rates
We tend to think of age as a linear progression marked by birthdays and milestones dictating when we can vote, drink, rent a car or pass beyond the crest of an arbitrary metaphorical hill. When scientists look at how organs ...
Medical Xpress / Stress and depression, not heart damage, may drive long-term breast cancer fatigue
For breast cancer survivors, new research shows that feelings of depression and perceptions of psychological stress make the biggest difference in whether they experience fatigue up to two years after chemotherapy started.
Phys.org / Deep-sea methane filter develops faster than previously thought
A biological methane filter on the seafloor can form much faster than scientists previously believed. An international research team including a University of Bremen researcher observed this over six years at a newly formed ...
Medical Xpress / Systems-level approaches crucial to translating research into aged care practice
Research continues to improve knowledge and understanding, but translating this research into clinical practice remains a challenge.
Phys.org / Screening tool amplifies tiny changes in protein levels within cells
Imagine a brain teaser where the challenge is to spot the difference between two nearly identical sandcastles. The only difference? The removal of three grains of sand. Scientists face a similarly exasperating challenge when ...
Phys.org / Peptides can form well-defined structures in harsh, Venus-like conditions
When exploring solar system bodies for signs of past or present life, scientists have mainly focused on planets that have (or had) a liquid surface similar to Earth's. However, mounting evidence suggests that the ingredients ...
