A new "housekeeping" process has been discovered in kidney cells, which ejects unwanted content and enables cells to rejuvenate themselves.

Use of low-dose atropine eyedrops was no better than placebo at slowing myopia progression and elongation of the eye among children treated for two years, according to a randomized controlled trial.

Researchers used a CRISPR gene-editing system to breed poplar trees with reduced levels of lignin, the major barrier to sustainable production of wood fibers, while improving their wood properties.

According to a groundbreaking study, people who participate in genetic studies are genetically more likely to do so, leaving detectable ‘footprints’ in genetics data.

Researchers have examined if adding the tropical alga Asparagopsis taxiformis, also known as red sea plume, to cow feces impacts greenhouse gas emissions from the manure of dairy cows.

Researchers in Sweden have uncovered a link between the levels of oral bacteria residing in the gut and the buildup of fatty cholesterol deposits in the heart’s blood vessels – a major cause of heart attacks.

Researchers have detected color changes in satellite photos of the Earth’s oceans that cannot be explained by normal year-to-year ecological variability alone. They say that these changes are likely a consequence of human-induced climate change.

The signal, produced by neurons, helps the barrier form and maintain its protective properties.

A team of researchers has discovered that the memory of the immune system relies on characteristic epigenetic features and a specific 3D arrangement of the DNA in the nucleus of memory cells, allowing for a fast activation of these cells.

A team of immune-engineers have developed a novel biomaterials-based immunotherapy approach named SIVET that has the potential to break down barriers.
