Cancer researchers have identified a previously hidden molecular partnership that may help explain why the protein c-Myc becomes so destructive in tumors. In a study...
A coral-inspired scaffold that combines multi-walled carbon nanotubes with nano-hydroxyapatite has shown promise in restoring bone regeneration in steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head, a...
Giant viruses are rewriting one of biology’s most familiar stories. Once regarded as unusual but relatively isolated curiosities, these oversized viruses are now emerging as...
Alzheimer’s disease has long been associated with the accumulation of tau, a neuronal protein that normally helps organize and stabilize microtubules inside axons. In the...
Cold is more than an uncomfortable sensation. For mammals, falling environmental temperatures trigger a coordinated emergency programme involving the brain, muscles, blood vessels, metabolism, behaviour...
For international scientists, the cost of working in the United States is often measured in laboratory rent, research materials and grant budgets. A new analysis...
A newborn’s first blood sample may one day offer scientists an early view of how the developing brain has been shaped before birth. In a...
A major National Institute on Aging workshop is putting a once-overlooked question at the center of aging science: why does health change differently in women...
Carbon dioxide is often described as a waste product, but researchers are developing increasingly practical ways to turn it into something useful. A team from...
Everyday sensations that overwhelm some children—a scratchy clothing tag, the roar of a vacuum cleaner or an unfamiliar smell—may reveal more about their mental health...
Consumers may be turning sustainability into a measurable force in corporate finance. A new analysis of 579 publicly listed South Korean companies suggests that environmental...
Although modern cancer treatments can eliminate malignant cells with remarkable efficiency, their lack of perfect selectivity often exposes healthy tissues to the same molecular assault....
A randomized clinical trial has produced a surprising finding about cannabis and the heart: habitual users experienced approximately 9% fewer premature heartbeats on days when...
Arizona’s water future may hinge on a choice between two radically different ways of importing moisture into one of the driest regions of the United...
Acute kidney injury is one of the most common and consequential complications faced by children after heart surgery, yet it often begins invisibly, before conventional...
