The researchers demonstrate that DNA damage and repair processes can play a role in the generation of sequence periodicity in the genomes of eukaryotic…
Rutgers scientists have created a tiny, biodegradable scaffold to transplant stem cells and deliver drugs, which may help treat Alzheimer's and Parkinson's…
Mehr als vier Milliarden Tonnen Rohöl werden jedes Jahr gefördert. Strom aus Wind-, Solar- und Wasserkraftwerken reicht nicht aus, um fossile Energieträger zu…
Various bacterial pathogens stimulate their hosts to engulf them during infection processes, allowing the bacteria to gain access to the host cell cytoplasm….
Sulphur is found in many different compounds throughout the world – not only in the atmosphere, but also in the oceans and on land. All these manifestations…
Many drugs that take effect in the brain have unwanted side effects. The appetite suppressant Rimonabant, for example, can cause anxiety, depression or even…
This method not only simplifies the experiment but accelerates it so much that many snapshots can now be recorded in a single experimental session. These can…
By wings or maybe riding on debris, that's how a now-flightless and rare species of tiny birds likely got to Inaccessible Island, an aptly named small island…
A cancer therapy based on fusing two types of cells into a single unit shows promise in strengthening existing treatments for acute myeloid leukemia. The…
Delivering an effective therapeutic payload to specific target cells with few adverse effects is considered by many to be the holy grail of medical research. A…
The European Chronic Disease Alliance defines cancer as the biggest non-communicable illness of our time causing 13% of global deaths. Breast cancer is the…
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) methods have been used widely in past decades as a safe, non-invasive and non-radioactive method of diagnosing CVDs. However,…
TMAO and urea are molecules that affect the osmotic pressure in living cells, so called osmolytes: With high concentrations of both urea and TMAO, marine…
Why does evolution repeat itself? What happens genetically during these repetitions? Do the same or other genes and mechanisms produce organisms that look…
One of the biggest challenges facing synthetic chemists is how to make molecules of only a particular “handedness.” Molecules can come in two shapes that…
