Researchers have used mouse models to demonstrate that an epigenetic factor, known as HDAC4, influences the expression of genes in neuronal cells involved in the processing of pain.

Researchers have found that a motion-sensor video game led to improved outcomes, similar to a highly regarded form of in-person therapy, in patients recovering from a stroke.

Neuromuscular training following concussion can help reduce the risk of injury when returning to sports, according to a new study.

“If I don't see it, I don’t believe it”, people say when they want to be certain of something. But are what we see and what we believe we see the same thing? A new study published in the journal Current Biology shows that this is not the case.

Researchers have found that along with links to a higher risk of hypertension, heart attacks, stroke and diabetes, untreated obstructive sleep apnea can also accelerate the biological aging process.

The structure and action mechanism of a key signaling molecule, Janus kinase, have been determined after 20 years. The structure has revealed how a cancer-causing mutation to the protein affects its activity.

Imagine millions of soapy sponges the size of human cells that can clean water by soaking up contaminants. This simplistic model is used to describe a new technology developed to remove micropollutants from water.

A genome-wide screen has identified a cell metabolism gene that could increase cancer-fighting T cell activity and potentially enable the development of CAR-T therapy for solid tumors.

A new software tool has been designed to use "pangenome" that incorporates genetic information from people around the world as a reference for genomic research.

According to a study, the green Mediterranean diet enriched the gut microbiome with bacteria that are known to have a significant effect on human weight and glycemic control.
