Hypoxia rewires red blood cells to clear excess glucose
In a 2023 paper on hypoxia and glucose metabolism, our lab showed how organisms rewire their metabolism to…
Low-fiber diets quickly impair emotional memory in aging brains
Past studies in animals have shown that a highly processed diet is linked to memory problems and inflammation…
A yeast-derived genetic tool offers hope for mitochondrial disorders and cancer
Nucleotide synthesis-the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA-is essential for cell growth and division. In…
Tiny organism offers insight into neurological side effects of chemotherapy
Chemotherapy remains one of the most powerful tools in the fight against cancer, yet it often comes with…
Dual targeting strategy suppresses pancreatic cancer cell growth
