Giant-nucleus cells form the foundation of early-stage cancer
Iron is an essential micronutrient, but excess iron can damage cells and increase cancer risk. While many cells…
Researchers tested dozens of clues for long COVID. One finding stood out
Researchers put persistent post-COVID symptoms under the microscope, combining clinical exams, neurological testing, and routine blood markers to…
Researchers put olive and fish oil IV nutrition under the microscope
As hospitals move beyond traditional soybean oil-based nutrition, researchers are probing whether olive or fish oil formulations offer…
New microscope tracks electrical activity across the brain on the scale of milliseconds
Within the brain, neurons compute by generating electrical impulses. These signals travel throughout neurons, which are in turn connected in vast networks that control brain functions such as sensory perception,…
Outfitting cells in “invisibility cloaks” could offer a novel approach to treating diabetes
Outfitting cells in “invisibility cloaks” may offer an easier, less damaging treatment pathway for people with diabetes undergoing…
Cells share universal on switches but evolve unique strategy to silence genes
The signals that cells use to switch genes on have remained almost unchanged across two billion years of…
Lifestyle changes improve MASLD by suppressing key molecular pathway
A molecular explanation for how lifestyle interventions protect the liver Lifestyle modification is the cornerstone of managing metabolic…
New light-sheet imaging system tracks brain seizure dynamics in 3D
Seizures can race through the brain in seconds, making them difficult to capture in detail. To overcome this…
Mid-year regulatory round-up: Updates from Europe
The changes have implications for multiple areas of the regulatory framework, leading companies to reassess product portfolios, packaging…
Genes follow a random switching principle, yet remain precise on average
Inside the cell nucleus, genes must be turned on and off with precision to regulate biological processes. The…
Countdown to send microbiome to Mars: Biotics may hold key to long-term spaceflight
Speaking at the IPC (19th International Scientific Conference on Probiotics, Prebiotics, Gut Microbiota and Health), in Krakow last…
New strategy restores vancomycin effectiveness against resistant bacteria
Antibiotic resistance is one of the most urgent threats to global health, linked to an estimated 4.7 million…
