Research: Polarity proteins in grass shape efficient "breathing" pores
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Grasses have "respiratory pores" (called stomata) that open and close to regulate the uptake of carbon dioxide for photosynthesis on the one hand and water loss through transpiration on the other.

Premature brain aging is associated with white matter hyperintensity load:
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Brain age is an MRI-derived estimate of brain tissue loss that has a similar pattern to aging-related atrophy. White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are neuroimaging markers of small vessel disease and may represent subtle signs of brain compromise.

Research finds aging is driven by unbalanced genes
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
In a new study, Northwestern University researchers used artificial intelligence to analyze data from a wide variety of tissues, collected from humans, mice, rats and killifish. They discovered that the length of genes can explain most molecular-level changes that occur during aging.

Potential therapy discovered to reduce chemotherapy side effects: Study
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
Scientists have identified a drug that could be a game-changer for patients. Istradefylline, which is already approved for Parkinson's disease, could reduce not only the harmful effects of cisplatin but also improve its anti-tumour properties.

Research suggests synthetic black holes radiate like real ones
Updated : 3 years, 4 months ago IST
Understanding black holes is the key to unravelling the most fundamental laws governing the cosmos because they represent the limits of two of the best-tested theories of physics: the theory of general relativity, which describes gravity as resulting from the (large-scale) warping of space-t
