Medical Xpress / Preclinical study points to cancer drugs as possible treatments for chronic nerve pain
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have found new evidence that BRAF, a protein commonly involved in cancer, plays a key role in developing, amplifying and maintaining chronic pain caused by ...
Phys.org / The crisis in cosmology continues: Critical problems in a recent defense of cosmic acceleration
Doubts about the standard model of cosmology are deepening after a new study identified fundamental problems in a recent analysis that defended the conventional view that the universe is currently undergoing accelerated expansion ...
Phys.org / Utah mountain ranges may store a billion tons of hidden ice
Unlike conventional glaciers, rock glaciers appear as piles of rock that obscure large masses of unaccounted-for ice. Rock glaciers are common in the Wasatch and Uinta ranges, even appearing on the Colorado Plateau in the ...
Phys.org / Roman telescope aims to directly image exoplanets 1,000 times fainter than current limits
The Roman Space Telescope is designed to directly image exoplanets using complex optomechanical systems developed by the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy
Medical Xpress / New global definition of myocardial infarction aims to improve diagnosis, treatment and patient understanding
When a myocardial infarction, such as a heart attack, occurs, being able to classify its type can improve diagnosis and treatment. For the first time, a universal definition of myocardial infarction has been developed and ...
Phys.org / Nano-antennas make living cells light up brighter and faster
Researchers at Delft University of Technology have demonstrated for the first time that nano-antennas can enhance the fluorescence of proteins in living human and other mammalian cells. Scientists already use smart fluorescent ...
Medical Xpress / Heart failure drugs may work within days by boosting cells' energy supply
Researchers have discovered that SGLT2 inhibitors, a class of drugs originally developed to treat diabetes and now widely used for heart failure, work by activating a key enzyme that helps heart cells produce and use energy ...
Medical Xpress / Largest ever molecular map of autism opens new paths to precision therapies
For more than two decades, researchers have identified hundreds of genes that increase the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Yet multiple fundamental questions have remained unanswered: Among them, how do mutations ...
Phys.org / Scientists melted a diamond and cracked a secret of ice giants
Some of the strangest weather in the solar system doesn't happen on Earth or even in Jupiter's Great Red Spot—it happens in the interiors of ice giants like Neptune and Uranus. Specifically, scientists have long believed ...
Medical Xpress / New combination therapy shows promise in metastatic pancreatic cancer
Results from an early-stage clinical trial, published in Nature Communications, showed encouraging outcomes among patients with newly diagnosed cancer whose tumors had spread to distant organs. Most strikingly, one patient ...
