Researchers have discovered a set of biomarkers that can be used to predict which patients diagnosed with glioblastoma may have tumors that are more resistant to radiation therapy. The discovery could inform treatment decisions that should enable patients to live longer.

An international research team may have found that a protein implicated in tumor growth may be able to help regulate awry cellular translation and protect against neuronal decay.

In a new paper, researchers conducted a systematic review of the vitamin D and dietary intakes of members of the black community across the globe. The findings suggest that people of African descent should consider taking vitamin D supplements and consume more vitamin D rich foods.

In order to feed a projected 9 billion people by 2050, farmers need to grow 50% more food on a limited amount of arable land. As a result, plant scientists are in a race against time to engineer crops with higher yields by improving photosynthesis.

A study of microbial populations under a prolonged period of starvation could help researchers answer questions pertaining to chronic infections, the functioning of bacteria in the environment and the persistence of life itself.

A study suggests that metabolism actually peaks much earlier and starts its inevitable decline later than you might think.

A set of brain signals known to help memories form may also influence blood sugar levels, finds a new study in rats.

For the first time, researchers have developed a successful approach for identifying proteins inside different types of neurons in the brain of a living animal.

Researchers identify two sugar-binding proteins that impede the viral entry of circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants.

It is well known that fat cells can influence our sensitivity to insulin. Now, researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have discovered that there are three different subtypes of mature fat cells in white adipose tissue and that it is only one of these, called AdipoPLIN, that responds to insulin.
