The LUCA Device Reveals High Precision in Thyroid Cancer Cells ScreeningThyroid nodules are a usual pathology with 19-76% when screened with ultrasound, with more remarkable regularities in women. Present medical techniques used to examine this cancer consist of executing an ultrasound, adhered to by a Doppler ultrasound, and afterward a biopsy. However, sadly, these...
Targeting Piezo1 Protein May be a Brand New and Ideal Approach to Cure Multiple SclerosisIn a new College of California, Irvine-led research study, researchers discovered that a specific healthy protein prevented governing T cells (Tregs) from successfully doing their work in controlling the damaging results of inflammation in a version of multiple sclerosis (MS),...

Cryo-EM imaging reveals high-resolution side and top views of the viral RNA replication “crown” complex structure. Credit: Paul Ahlquist, Morgridge Institute for ResearchFor the very first time, researchers at the Morgridge Institute for Research have created near-atomic resolution images of a significant viral healthy protein complicated responsible for replicating the RNA genome of a...
The newly described oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (green) contact long-distance neuronal axons (magenta) on the wall of the brain ventricles.According to a study published June 20 in Science, scientists discovered two types of glial cells in the brains of adult mice - an astrocyte and an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell - after pushing neural stem cells to...

New Study Helps Explain the Diversity of Life and also "Paradox of Sex."There are significant differences in species numbers among the major branches of the tree of life. Some teams of organisms have numerous types, while others have a couple of. For example, animals, plants, and fungi each have more than 100,000 well-known varieties,...
