Plants are commonly grown in controlled lighting environments for research purposes, which does not mimic real-world conditions. Researchers revealed the significance of two key proteins for the dynamic control of photosynthesis in a series of experiments with changing light conditions, simu
According to a research that was published in the journal "Science Advances", items like molds for casting metal nanoparticles with particular shapes like solar cells could potentially created by thread-like DNA molecules.
New research shows that glass frogs known for their highly transparent undersides and muscles perform their "disappearing acts" by stowing away nearly all of their red blood cells into their uniquely reflective livers. The study, led by scientists at the American Museum of Natural History an
The sympathetic nervous system tumour known as neuroblastoma mainly affects young children. In the Netherlands, 25 kids are given this diagnosis per year. An essential component of the therapy strategy is surgery to remove the tumour tissue. Since November 2014, the Princess Maxima Center fo
After an intrepid, decade-long search, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have found a new role for a pair of enzymes that regulate genome function and, when missing or mutated, are linked to diseases such as brain tumors, blood cancers and Kleefstra syndrome a rare genetic, neurocog
Researchers describe the impact of epigenetics on cancer treatment and how it has become a crucial tool to improve early detection, predict disease progression and become a target for new treatments.
Researchers have succeeded in cultivating a special archaeon and characterizing it more precisely using microscopic methods. This member of the Asgard archaea exhibits unique cellular characteristics and may represent an evolutionary 'missing link' to more complex life forms such as animals
Loss of synapses and the death of neurons, leading to neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases can be caused by inflammation and overactivation of the immune system in the brain.
According to research published in the journal 'Nature Communications', highly active cells were found in a tumour which showed how they grow and attack normal tissues of the body.
What allows bones to maintain their capacity for self-renewal and health? Insights into the essential role of non-collagen protein compounds and how they support bone cells' ability to respond to external load have been found by a team from Charite Berlin.c
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have discovered a connection between metabolic abnormalities that affect the growth of the brain's oligodendrocyte cells and the mutation that results in Huntington's disease. They discovered that thiamine and biotin in large amounts can r
