Study: Fat tissue of older mice lose the ability to restore body heat in cold temperatures

The evolution of humans has given them a level of protection from the risk of cold temperature with the ability to generate heat from fat stored in the body.

Study reveals possibilities to disrupt dynamics and halt SARS-CoV-2 transmission

Researchers have simulated the transition of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein structure from the time it recognizes the host cell to its entry into the cell.

UMSOM study suggests a genetic basis behind instantaneous human compatibility

Have you ever met someone you instantly liked, or at other times, someone who you knew immediately that you did not want to be friends with, although you did not know why?

Experts decode the genetic mechanism governing the speed of mRNA translation

The genetic material of all eukaryotic organisms is stored in the cell nucleus in the form of DNA. The DNA is first transcribed into messenger RNA in the cell cytoplasm and later translated into protein using ribosomes for it to be used, where ribosomes are small machines capable of decoding messenger RNA to synthesize the relevant proteins.

New drug delivery strategy could make it easier for patients to take their medications

In recent years, scientists have developed monoclonal antibodies -; proteins that mimic the body's own immune defenses -; that can combat a variety of diseases, including some cancers and autoimmune disorders such as Crohn's disease.

New approach to enhance cell-free biosynthesis with engineered yeast extracts

Think of cells as tiny factories: within their walls they have both the machinery to make products such as proteins, and the mechanisms for maintenance to keep processes running smoothly.

Study employs inflammatory proteins to diagnose the early onset of Alzheimer’s

According to recent research, investigating some inflammatory proteins will enable diagnosis of the earlier onset and progression of Alzheimer’s disease.

Brain cholesterol promotes toxic amyloid plaque formation in Alzheimer’s disease

Research has revealed higher cholesterol supply from astrocytes to neurons in the model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brains.

Study explores the link between antibiotics use, gut microbiota, and lifespan

A group of scientists have identified a connection between the type of microbiome that recolonizes the gut after antibiotics and the lessened lifespan in mice.

Study proposes a novel approach for developing safer analgesics

Opioids are potent painkillers; however, their use is hampered as patients become tolerant to them, necessitating more and more doses.

Stanford researchers use machine learning approach to solve structural biology challenges

Determining the 3D shapes of biological molecules is one of the hardest problems in modern biology and medical discovery. Companies and research institutions often spend millions of dollars to determine a molecular structure – and even such massive efforts are frequently unsuccessful.

Researchers develop a method to engineer new functionalities into cells

Researchers at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have developed a method to engineer new functionalities into cells. The results were published today in the journal Cell in the article "Dual film-like organelles enable spatial separation of orthogonal eukaryotic translation".

Novel method improves the resolution of hard X-ray nanotomography

It's been a truth for a long time: if you want to study the movement and behavior of single atoms, electron microscopy can give you what X-rays can't. X-rays are good at penetrating into samples -; they allow you to see what happens inside batteries as they charge and discharge, for example -; but historically they have not been able to spatially image with the same precision electrons can.

Study unravels new aspects of prions causing untreatable neurodegenerative conditions

A new study achieved the highest-ever resolution imaging of an infectious prion, offering atomic-level data of how these abnormal proteins assemble.

Study devises novel process to purify exosomes from cow’s milk

Cells produce exosomes, the nano-sized biological capsules, to protect and courier delicate molecules across the body. The capsules are hard enough to resist enzymatic breakdown and acidic and temperature fluctuations in the bloodstream and gut, which makes them a major candidate for drug delivery.

Researchers report several compounds responsible for coffee’s distinctive mouthfeel

Coffee drinkers intuitively recognize the pleasure of swallowing a smooth, rich brew versus a watery one. Aside from added cream or sugar, the coffee itself contributes to this sensation -; referred to as body or mouthfeel -; but the specific compounds are not well defined.

Eating pecans can dramatically improve a person's cholesterol levels

While the proper pronunciation of pecan remains a subject of debate, University of Georgia researchers have shown the tree nut can dramatically improve a person's cholesterol levels.
