Researchers in Japan have identified a striking new way immune cells strip DNA out of dying neighbors, a process they call ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered how to reverse aging in blood-forming stem cells in mice by correcting defects in the stem cell's lysosomes. The breakthrough ...

New research, published today in the journal Science, shows how lysosomes - organelles that act like cells' waste disposal system - respond to stress by becoming abnormally bloated, a process called ...

ABSTRACT: Amphiphilic triblock poloxamer 188 (P188) has demonstrated its therapeutic potential for muscle, cardiac and neurological injuries. While this surfactant is thought to primarily reseal the ...

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

I’d love to read a creepy science fiction story where people dissolve. I asked my friend Anders Omsland if that could happen. He’s a biomedical researcher at Washington State University. He told me a ...

Of the 20,000+ human genes, none has greater influence on late-onset Alzheimer’s disease than APOE. But why do certain variants of this lipid transporter protect the brain, while others endanger it? A ...

The peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms a continuous, dynamic network of tubules that plays an important role in protein transport and quality control, cellular signaling, and stress response.

Summary: Researchers reveal that the relationship between brain structure and function varies significantly across different brain regions. In primary sensory and motor regions, neuron wiring strongly ...

The first month of life is a critical period for brain development, with rapid reconfiguration of brain structure and function. Yet, how structural and functional connections reorganize to support ...

This study presents a useful exploration of the complex relationship between structure and function in the developing human brain using a large-scale imaging dataset from the Human Connectome Project ...
