AI-Designed Synthetic Polymers Mimic Natural Peptides to Beat Superbug Resistance

Swimming through the blood, sweat, cells, and tears of all humans are tiny proteins referred to as peptides.

Chronic Inflammation Linked to Heart Changes and Risks

Chronic inflammation, indicated by GlycA levels, has been linked to heart changes and increased cardiovascular risk, highlighting genetic and environmental interactions.

3D Stem-Cell miBrains Model Complex Neurovascular Pathology in Human Tissue

Mount Sinai researchers have identified how APOE4, the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, damages the brain's blood vessels and promotes the buildup of abnormal proteins linked to neurodegenerative disease.

Type I Interferon Pathway Identified as Crucial Innate Viral Defense

Tick populations are expanding across the U.S., driving an increase in tick-borne diseases. Among them is Powassan virus, a rare but increasingly reported infection that can cause severe brain inflammation and lasting neurological complications.

Multi-Receptor Blocking Achieves Superior Antifibrotic Response Over Single-Receptor Inhibition

Three adenosine receptor subtypes that normally send different signals were found to converge on a common pathway that activates cardiac fibroblasts, the scar-forming cells in the heart. Blocking the receptors together produced a much stronger antifibrotic effect than blocking them one at a time.

Garvan Researchers Uncover Genetic Causes of Inherited Muscle Disease

A world-first test developed by researchers at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research has identified the genetic cause of inherited muscle disease in people who remained without answers after years, sometimes decades, of standard testing.

UCLA Team Develops Advanced Immunotherapy to Fight Dangerous Arterial Plaques

A UCLA research team has engineered a new type of immune cell that attacks atherosclerotic plaques — the fatty buildup inside artery walls that drives most heart attacks and strokes.

New Research Reveals Complex Protein Dynamics Within Human Red Blood Cells

They account for nearly 83% of all cells in the human body, yet red blood cells are often portrayed as little more than bags of hemoglobin ferrying oxygen from the lungs to the heart and beyond. But new research from the University of Colorado Anschutz reveals that they are vastly more complex with far reaching consequences for health, exercise and fitness.

Groundbreaking ARUP Research Clarifies Clinical Value of Atypical Cell-Free DNA Screening Results

An extensive, first-of-its-kind research study by ARUP Laboratories clarifies the clinical value of atypical findings from prenatal cell-free DNA (cfDNA) screening and their impact on pregnancy outcomes.

Novel Organoid Platform Reveals Non-Immune Drivers of Diabetic Renal Injury

Stem cell researchers have identified inflammatory pathways that may play a key role in driving kidney damage in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), pointing to potential new approaches for protecting the kidneys.

Researchers Reveal How p53 Tumor-Suppressor Protein Hide From T Cells

One of the biggest challenges in cancer immunotherapy may not be that immune cells are too weak, but that some tumors give them too little to see.

Combining Massive Genomic Cohorts With Single-Cell Analysis to Track Autoimmune Diseases

A research team led by Professor Hong-Hee Won of the Samsung Advanced Institute for Health Sciences and Technology (SAIHST) at Sungkyunkwan University(SKKU) and Samsung Medical Center, with Researcher Hyeonbin Jo as a first author, has revealed the specific mechanisms.

Researchers Discover Dual Immune Mechanisms Controlling Latent HIV Vectors

There is no cure for HIV. While scientists have made considerable progress in controlling the infection, patients still must take daily antiretroviral medication for the rest of their lives.

Single-Cell Multiomics Model Decodes Enhancer Networks in Rare Cell Populations

Understanding gene regulation may be the key to interpreting human disease genetics. Genes are regulated in part by stretches of DNA called enhancers, which define when, where, and how strongly each gene is turned on.

Noninvasive Imaging Framework Enhances Predictions of Higher-Order Human Brain Function

Researchers from the Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics Institute (Stevens INI) at the Keck School of Medicine of USC have developed a new, noninvasive way to examine how blood flow and cellular organization align across the layers of the living human brain.
