How people type and click can detect their stress at work: Study
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
Researchers at ETH Zurich have used new data and machine learning to develop a model that can tell how stressed people are just from the way they type and use a computer mouse

Study finds how some brain cells transfer material to neurons
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
UC Davis researchers are the first to describe how oligodendrocyte-lineage cells transfer cell material to neurons in the mouse brain. Their findings show that these cells and neurons interact in a coordinated nuclear manner.

Study reveals how memory T cells induces immunity in people with Salmonell
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Salmonella infections kill about a million people worldwide each year, and better vaccines for both typhoid fever and non-typhoidal Salmonella disease are needed badly. Memory T cells, which are critical for a vaccine that induces a powerful immune response, can be recruited into the liver o

Study reveals how extracellular vesicles boost T cells
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
T cells, a key element of the immune system, are crucial in preventing viral infections. Extracellular vesicles are shown to be crucial in the activation of these cells in a mouse model by a team led by Prof. Thomas Brocker and Jan Kranich from the LMU Biomedical Center.

Researchers find level of work stress among people from typing, mouse clic
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
One in three workers in Switzerland experience work-related stress. When someone is impacted, it's common for them to not realise how limited their physical and mental abilities are until it's too late. This underscores the significance of recognising work-related stress as soon as it manife

Smell impact mouse metabolism, ageing: Study
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Female odours and pheromones enable mice to lose weight and live longer lives, which may have implications for people, according to researchers at the University of Otago.

Muscle health depends on lipid synthesis: Research
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
Researchers at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology (IMBA) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences characterize how the enzyme PCYT2 affects muscle health in disease and aging in laboratory mouse models. The findings are published on in Nature Metabolism.

Key role identified for nervous system in severe allergic shock
Updated : 2 years, 11 months ago IST
An abrupt drop in blood pressure and body temperature is a key feature of the severe allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis, causing people to faint and, if untreated, potentially die. That response has long been attributed to blood vessel dilation and leakage. However, in a mouse study, res

Research: Cancer drug development affected by differences in animal biolog
Updated : 3 years ago IST
A small but significant metabolic difference between human and mouse lung tumour cells, has been discovered by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers, explaining a discrepancy in previous study results, and pointing toward new strategies for developing cancer treatments.

Researchers circumvent radiation resistance in subtypes of brain tumours
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Researchers have uncovered a gene that is overexpressed in mutated IDH1. Studies in human cells and a novel mouse model both show that this gene, called ZMYND8, plays a critical role in radiation resistance. When they knocked down the gene, the glioma cells became responsive to radiation tre

New research identifies potential hepatoblastoma treatment target
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
The research group used the mouse model to test how inhibiting HSF1 early in tumour development would impact cancer growth.

Researchers reveal diabetic retinopathy cause blindness in adults
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Diabetic retinopathy, which results in progressive damage to the blood vessels in the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, is the main cause of blindness in adults in the United States. However, a study suggested that the small leaky intestine, which reduces the barrier between gut
