Researchers have discovered the mechanism of action by which abnormal proteins unleash the inherent, normally latent, toxicity of a natural protein in neurons, causing defects in dendrites.

Scientists found that Fritillaria delavayi plants, which live on rocky slopes of China's Hengduan mountains, match their backgrounds most closely in areas where they are heavily harvested.

Scientists have created the first full-size 3D bioprinted human heart model using Freeform Reversible Embedding of Suspended Hydrogels (FRESH).

Preliminary tests demonstrate the blocking of the cellular entry of viruses expressing the SARS-CoV-2 proteins.

More than half of bacterial species in the core of the human gut microbiome are potentially sensitive to glyphosate, the most commonly used broad-spectrum herbicide, shows new research.

A new study indicates that hyperbaric oxygen treatments (HBOT) in healthy aging adults can stop the aging of blood cells and reverse the aging process.

A team of scientists has discovered new functions of a key cellular machine that regulates gene packaging. This "machine" called BAF/PBAF is mutated in 20% of all human tumors, including pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer and melanoma.

A basic science discovery reveals a fundamental way cells interpret signals from their environment and may eventually pave the way for potential new therapies.

New research has discovered a cell type that governs the way bones form and maintain themselves, opening up a potential target for future therapies for bone disorders like osteoporosis.

A large-scale study of African elephant genetics in Tanzania reveals the history of elephant populations, how they interact, and what areas may be critical to conserve in order to preserve genetic diversity for species conservation.
