Researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil, partnering with colleagues in Australia, have identified a novel bacterial protein that can keep human cells healthy even when the cells have a heavy bacterial burden.
The lungs were once at the forefront of SARS-Cov-2 research, but as reports of organ failure and other serious complications poured in, scientists set out to discover how and why the respiratory virus was causing serious damage to the body's major organs, including the lungs.
UTA will soon add a new piece of cutting-edge equipment to its already impressive and growing research armamentarium-;a type of super-resolution microscope (SRM) that allows biologists to see structures within a cell in even finer detail.
The study reveals that introducing progerin, a protein associated with accelerated aging, into cellular models of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) can hasten the development of AD-related traits. This innovative approach offers a more efficient method for studying AD mechanisms, potentially accelerating the discovery of new treatments.
Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. The role of cuproptosis, a newly discovered form of programmed cell death, remains poorly understood in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
