Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock remains one of the most dangerous emergencies in modern cardiovascular medicine. Even when an obstructed coronary artery is...
A new polymer-assembly protocol is turning a familiar biodegradable polyester into precisely shaped two-dimensional nanomaterials. In a study published in Nature Protocols, Xia, Xiao, Yadav...
Aging Skin’s Molecular Switch: Noncircadian BMAL1–YAP Cooperation Amplifies Chronic Inflammation Aging skin is often described as a visible record of time, but its decline is...
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy has transformed the treatment of several blood cancers, yet its success often depends on how long engineered immune cells remain...
A gene therapy designed to replace a damaged or missing copy of the alpha protein kinase 3 gene has restored cardiac function in mouse and...
A simple chemical transformation could give ordinary aliphatic amines a remarkable new identity: the ability to become nitriles in a single copper-catalysed step. In a...
A new study in budding yeast suggests that one of biology’s most fundamental processes—cell growth—may be governed by a remarkably simple principle: cells grow faster...
A global study has challenged one of ecology’s most persistent assumptions about invasive plants: that their success is consistently powered by a special relationship with...
Colorectal cancer is often described as a disease written into the genome, but the authors of a new study argue that some of its most...
Smoking and limited access to education appear to be combining into a powerful, preventable driver of premature death in the United States, according to a...
A previously unrecognized population of cancer-associated fibroblasts appears to act as a spatial organizer for immune suppression in lung cancer, according to a study published...
A new flexible sensor could help machines see, feel and make decisions with a level of coordination that has long challenged conventional electronic skins. In...
Metal–organic frameworks, or MOFs, are best known as highly ordered crystalline materials whose molecular building blocks assemble into repeating networks filled with nanoscale pores. Their...
Han, Cho, Takahashi and colleagues have reported a potential new way to strengthen cancer immunotherapy from inside the gut: an orally administered nanotechnology system designed...
Cryo-electron microscopy has transformed structural biology by allowing scientists to visualize proteins and other biological machines at near-atomic resolution. Yet the technique has a deceptively...
