Cancer is a complex disease that varies extensively in its form, being one of the main causes of death worldwide. The Global Cancer Observatory project (GLOBOCAN) calculates 9.96 million deaths by ...

Interneurons have a multipolar structure that allows them to receive multiple signals and then send a unified command to another neuron. In this way, you can think of interneurons as traffic ...

The new structure incorporates chemical groups called sulfonates to make it compatible with water, allowing it to function in real-world water systems, like rivers or wastewater. It uses a natural ...

An artificial intelligence model has created a new protein that researchers say would have taken 500 million years to evolve in nature — if nature were capable of producing such a thing.

State Key Laboratory of Physical Chemistry of Solid Surfaces and Fujian Provincial Key Laboratory of Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Xiamen ...

Mice lacking BCL6 had 40% less muscle mass than their healthy counterparts, and the muscle they did have was compromised both in structure and function. However, when the researchers increased the ...

“Earth becomes a musical instrument.” Decades ago, measurements of such seismic waves identified two strange continent-sized structures, one beneath the Pacific Ocean and one beneath Afric ...

The material resembles medieval chainmail at the molecular level and could be used ... The material contains 100 trillion chemical bonds per square centimeter (around 650 trillion per square ...

Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in ...

The international team describes their results and the underlying molecular mechanism in Cell Metabolism. Ergothioneine is a natural compound found in certain fungi such as oyster or shiitake ...
