Hydrogel Dressings Accelerating Diabetic Wound Healing
Most diabetic wound care products are passive dressings, only providing a protective barrier against the external environment. This article explores how hydrogel technologies can promote diabetic wound healing.

News
Not All Cell Types in the Brain Age in the Same Way
Scientists have identified specific cell types in mice brains that change drastically as they age, which could pave the way for future therapies to slow brain aging.

News
Brain Cell Changes Linked to Aging Identified
Allen Institute scientists identified brain cell types and a hypothalamic hot spot where significant aging changes occur, using advanced RNA sequencing and brain mapping. The findings highlight targets for potential therapies to delay aging.

News
Structural Cell Protein Found To Play a Key Role in Gene Transcription
Cornell researchers reveal that linker histones, previously thought to merely organize DNA, actively regulate gene expression as transcription factors. This discovery, made in apple cells, highlights a direct role in DNA transcription.
