For decades, high cholesterol has meant a lifetime of daily pills, repeat blood tests and constant reminders that the biggest ...

MD Anderson studies reveal how cancer cells rewire metabolism to spread. A glucose–fructose mix promotes colorectal metastasis via cholesterol pathways, while fatty-acid oxidation driven by ACBP ...

A Purdue University team has discovered a new therapeutic target for triple-negative breast cancer. The research, led by Kyle Cottrell, an assistant professor of biochemistry, spotlights ...

AI‑driven protein design creates potent anti‑CRISPR inhibitors that block Cas13 activity, offering a new potential tool for safer, more controlled gene editing.

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...

A microglia replacement approach demonstrates that brain macrophages with patient mutations from Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, a genetic, brain predominant interferonopathy, are sufficient to drive ...

By Dr. Sanchari Sinha Dutta, Ph.D. Three days of oat-heavy meals spark gut-derived phenolic metabolites linked to rapid ...

Ferns switch between male and hermaphrodite forms, a process driven by chemical signals. Research shows the plant hormone auxin is key, triggering new growth centers when a male signal is absent.
