A controlled trial suggests that these non-nutritive sweeteners affect the human gut microbes and may alter glucose metabolism; the effects vary greatly among individuals.

mRNA vaccinations against COVID-19 are safe and reduce hospitalization in those with heart failure, according to a new study.

The flash of lightning and the dance of auroras contain a fourth state of matter known as plasma, which researchers have harnessed to produce a gas that may activate plant immunity against wide-spread diseases.

Scientists devise novel methods in their microfluidic technology to produce optimized platforms for tissue and disease modeling.

Cryo-electron microscopy has revealed insights into the unique surface structures that enable a hospital superbug to spread across surfaces.

Three phenols that naturally occur in foods such as green tea, olive oil and red wine have been shown to inhibit an enzyme crucial to coronavirus replication.

Researchers have successfully engineered human immune cells to model an infection common among immunocompromised children in a breakthrough discovery, paving the way for new drug testing and treatments.

With the help of cryo-electron microscopy, scientists were able to visualize the whole T-cell receptor complex with bound antigen at atomic resolution for the first time.

Researchers present a novel approach to single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) called “Live-seq”, which enables the extraction of mRNA from single cells without killing the cell. The method is published in Nature.

Researchers have studied the development of the main immune cell population residing in the human brain, microglia, on human tissue.
