Salt stress is rapidly eroding crop productivity worldwide, and medicinal plants are not spared. For Salvia miltiorrhiza, salinization threatens both survival and the biochemical machinery...
A new Nature Immunology study reveals that the human lungs harbor a long-lived “reservoir” of tissue-resident memory T cells (T_RM), poised to react immediately to...
A new study in Nature Communications reports that two reactive metabolites—methylglyoxal and acrolein—can disrupt a key metabolic pathway in male zebrafish, triggering both high blood...
A new randomized clinical trial is drawing attention to a deceptively simple intervention for the most medically fragile newborns: feeding them only human milk. Researchers...
A new preclinical study reports that a previously underexplored biguanide-based compound, 4C, can dramatically enhance the anticancer effects of talazoparib in bladder cancer models. Published...
Wireless technology has become inseparable from everyday life, but the electromagnetic radiation emitted by smartphones, routers, and smart devices can interfere with sensitive electronics and...
It may sound like science fiction: an experiment named NEMESIS operating deep underground, waiting to reveal the universe’s hidden schemes. But at the Sanford Underground...
Children born with NAXD deficiency—a genetic disorder that can be rapidly fatal—may have a better future with early, high-dose vitamin B3 (niacin), according to a...
Social amoebae coordinate as individual cells form shifting, cooperative assemblies. New findings now suggest that this coordination is supported by more intimate physical exchange than...
In an era where global populations are aging, cognitive decline has become a public-health priority. Yet the factors that shape brain health in later life...
A team of chemists has unveiled a light-driven way to move nitrogen fragments onto gold—an advance that could make nitrene-transfer chemistry faster, more selective, and...
Resistance training is celebrated for building strength, but it also triggers a cascade of molecular stress in skeletal muscle—damage that the body must quickly manage...
A new simulation study highlights a subtle but potentially consequential factor in neonatal resuscitation: the rotation of the rescuer during chest compressions. Published in Pediatric...
A new study shines a spotlight on a simple but potentially transformative idea in neonatal intensive care: making lung ultrasound (LUS) use consistent across clinicians....
A team led by Del Popolo and colleagues reports that aggregated α-synuclein—an established driver of Parkinson’s disease pathology—does not affect dopamine neurons uniformly. Using acute...
