A new artificial intelligence model can improve the process of drug and vaccine discovery by predicting how efficiently ...

Without the receptor, ADGRG1, the microglia barely nibbled on the toxic protein. Using a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease, the researchers observed how the loss of ADGRG1 led to the rapid buildup of ...

Large-scale redesigns, including changes to core domains, may retain stability—challenging assumptions that such regions are off-limits.

These Immune Cells Eat Molecular Trash to Keep Alzheimer's at Bay UCSF scientists have discovered how microglia engulf and break down amyloid beta, a protein that builds up in Alzheimer’s, with ...

Among genetically identical "agouti viable yellow" (Avy) mice, some are brown and lean while others are yellow and obese.

The gender gap in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields is still a crucial issue. According to ...

Current approaches in bioengineering are synthesized and methods for their implementation are suggested for the induction and modulation of trained immunity in the treatment of human diseases.

Partially defatted sunflower seed flour may soon change what bread means for your diet. In Brazil, researchers from the ...

The structural similarities between protein sequences and natural languages have led to parallel advancements in deep learning across both domains. While large language models (LLMs) have achieved ...

Researchers identified SDR42E1 as a key regulator of vitamin D absorption and sterol metabolism in colorectal cancer cells.

In this valuable study, the authors provide a simple yet elegant approach to identifying therapeutic targets that synergize to prevent therapeutic resistance in ovarian cancer using cell lines, ...

High-protein diets may boost muscle and metabolism, but experts warn of potential kidney strain—especially for those with ...
