Researchers have developed a way to tag RNA with a glowing "lantern" to track it in real time as it moves through the body.

A study by UGR and UPNA highlights early fasting (5 p.m.–9 a.m.) as a safe, effective method for weight loss and improved glucose regulation. Early fasting reduced subcutaneous abdominal fat and improved overnight glucose levels.

Researchers reveal norepinephrine’s critical role in the brain’s glymphatic system during deep sleep. Small pulses create rhythmic blood vessel movements, flushing metabolic waste and toxic proteins like beta-amyloid.

Rutgers researchers highlight the role of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in boosting endurance and promoting healthy aging. BAT improves blood circulation, reduces cellular stress and enhances metabolism

Higher cardiorespiratory fitness in older age is linked to the preservation of several core aspects of cognitive ability.

Researchers found that specific nutrients, such as antioxidants and polyunsaturated fats, may reduce brain iron accumulation, a factor linked to cognitive decline. The study revealed a protective role of diet in slowing age-related brain changes.

UT Southwestern researchers uncover sex-specific differences in fat accumulation in muscle and bone, shaped by age and BMI. Using MRI data, they found that fat infiltration in muscle correlates with age in women and body weight in men.

Researchers used proteomics to map synaptic proteins in two types of pyramidal neurons, IT and PT, highlighting differences that may explain their vulnerabilities to autism and schizophrenia.

Yale scientists studied how the body tolerates cancer-causing mutations in skin stem cells, uncovering a surprising redox response that dictates cell fate. Mutations alter glucose metabolism, influencing competition with healthy cells.

A new framework has used neural network training dynamics to interpret single-cell and spatial omics data.
