Researchers have developed a computational model that helps improve the injectability of microparticles and prevent them from clogging.

Probiotics either taken by themselves or when combined with prebiotics, may help to ease depression, suggests a new review, although further investigation is needed.

A common inherited genetic variant is a frequent cause of deafness in adults, meaning that many thousands of people are potentially at risk, reveals research.

Using an animal model, researchers have demonstrated that age-related frailty and immune decline can be halted and even partially reversed using a novel cell-based therapeutic approach.

A unique nanoparticle to deliver a localized cancer treatment inhibits tumor growth in mice, according to new research conducted at Penn State University.

Scientists have discovered that they can halt the growth of pancreatic cancer cells by interfering with the way the cells store cholesterol.

BUSM researchers have developed and implemented a new way to better understand how human cells communicate with each other, how this communication is disrupted in human diseases and how this can be corrected pharmacologically.

A team of researchers has reported that a new vitamin K-based drug has proved effective in mouse models of medication-resistant seizures.

A team has discovered a new class of drugs, capable of relieving pain and reducing fever without the danger of addiction or damage to the liver or kidneys.

The active ingredients of many drugs are natural products. Similar to the production line in a factory, large enzyme complexes put these active agent molecules together inside microorganisms. A team of researchers has now succeeded in investigating the basic mechanisms of one of these "factories".
