Globins in the body help fight liver disease

Anti-fibrotic therapy is still a medical necessity in the treatment of chronic liver disease in humans. The anti-fibrotic activity of globin family members in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), the principal cell type involved in liver fibrosis, was reported by a research group led by Professor Norifumi Kawada of Osaka Metropolitan University (OMU).

Study reveals novel mechanism used by infectious bacteria to survive stressful situations

A new study led by researchers at University of Utah Health details a novel mechanism that infectious bacteria use to quickly adjust to environmental stress. The discovery could help explain why certain types of common infections-;such as urinary tract and bloodstream infections like sepsis- are hard to get rid of.

Study shows how CRISPR RNAs help the immune system to identify and combat viruses

What tasks must be completed today, and which are the most vital? In their daily lives, people must continuously make priorities. Bacteria are no exception: while using CRISPR to battle viruses, they must prioritize as well. However, the method by which this priority is accomplished is unknown.

Bacteria form distinctive lane-like patterns when constrained to a channel

It's well understood that populations of species don't distribute at random. Rather, as populations grow, individuals are organized around barriers in the landscape.

Curved shape enables predatory bacteria to efficiently invade, grow and live inside the prey

Scientists have found that a predatory bacterium, capable of invading and consuming harmful bugs such as E.coli and Salmonella, can sculpt its own shape to fit inside its prey.
