Venous endothelial cells can help fix damaged blood vessels in the lungs, a new study has found.

A new study has uncovered how "Conan the Bacterium" can withstand radiation doses thousands of times higher than would kill a human.

Researchers identified plasma proteins linked to brain aging using imaging and proteomics. Key biomarkers, like BCAN and GDF15, highlight early molecular signs of cognitive decline and disease risk.

Researchers have revealed how the folding and movement of DNA that brings distant regions closer together is linked to bursts of gene activity.

Researchers have discovered that a previously ignored microRNA acts as a color switch for butterfly wings.

Researchers have uncovered surprising ways transcription factors – the genetic switches for genes – regulate plant development, revealing how subtle changes in a lipid-binding region can dramatically affect growth.

Chiba University researchers developed a method to detect unrecognized chemicals in the body. Analyzing serum from pregnant women, they identified 106 compounds, highlighting potential health risks.

Women who have a high genetic risk of depression are more likely to develop heart disease, finds a study that exposes a difference in risk for women compared to men.

An international study links GSK3B gene variants to autism and developmental delays. By analyzing 15 cases and using mouse models, researchers showed disrupted development in excitatory neurons.

Researchers show gut microbes may have fueled brain evolution by optimizing energy use. Experiments revealed that microbes in large-brained primates like humans and squirrel monkeys promoted higher energy expenditure.
