People with inflammatory bowel diseases develop inflammation of the intestine that can cause thickening of the gut wall and life-threatening blockage of the intestinal tube. Twenty to 50 per cent of people with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are affected over their lifetime by this p
Researchers revealed how Ceramics with an oxygen storage capacity play a crucial role in purification process and how it helps to remove noxious gases.
Researchers have discovered the vital role of a hormone, that develops in men during puberty, in providing an early prediction of whether they could develop certain diseases in later life.
Watching violent TV during the preschool years can lead to later risks of psychological and academic impairment, the summer before middle school starts, according to a new study led by Linda Pagani, a professor at Universite de Montreal's School of Psycho-Education.
Cancer cells use sugar molecules on their surface to disable attacks by the body's immune system. Researchers at the University of Basel now report on how this mechanism can be neutralized.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.a.) are resistant to most antibiotics and cause life-threatening infections of wounds or the lungs. The P.a. bacteria species has an entire arsenal of strategies for evading the immune system and infecting tissue. Researchers working with Prof. Dr. Winfried Romer an
The foods we eat on a regular basis influence the makeup of the bacteria -- both good and bad -- in our mouths. And researchers are finding that this collective of bacteria known as the oral microbiome likely plays a large role in our overall health, in addition to its previously known assoc
To decipher these adverse effects, the researchers examined the animals' lungs at an intermediate stage - when tiny micro-metastases may have already developed, but even advanced imaging technologies like CT cannot detect them.
A study published in Cell Reports reveals important insights into the molecular mechanisms that underpin the body's natural defences against the development of skin cancer.
The feeling of vibration through touch and the interactions between the inner ear and the brain have close links to the motor system. The researchers speculate these physical processes are at work in the neurological connection between music and movement.
