Root-knot nematodes pose a significant threat to agriculture, infecting a wide range of crops and causing billions of dollars in losses annually. These parasites induce the formation of galls on plant ...

Aging is a complex biological process that also takes place in the brain. Researchers have discovered that the gene activity changes in different cell types in the brain. A certain type of neuron is ...

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute have developed a new computational framework that allows simultaneous analysis of gene expression and mechanical forces within cells and tissues, uncovering ...

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to public health in the 21st century, with bacteria such as Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) exhibiting multidrug resistance due to the ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield have uncovered how to potentially control harmful insect populations by studying a "selfish gene" that manipulates inheritance The new research focuses on ...

The ability of immune cells—particularly CD8 + T cells—to launch a rapid burst of proliferation inside tumors is key to the success of modern day cancer immunotherapies. However, the factors and ...

Researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level when transporting RNA drugs. LMU researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level ...

Bacterial second messenger networks transmit environmental information through both amplitude and frequency modulation strategies. However, the mechanisms by which cells decode frequency-encoded ...

As many as 40% of Americans are obese, putting them at an increased risk for high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart disease and certain cancers, according to the CDC. New research from the ...

Genetic code expansion, where noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) are added to the central dogma, has provided foundational tools to study and manipulate biological processes 1,2. Pioneering labs have ...
