The resulting materials are stronger and less prone to […] Read more…
2025-10-13 15:27:39 +00:00 An NIH-supported initiative seeks to unravel how the nervous system tracks and regulates the body’s internal organs. How does your brain recognize when it’s time to take a breath, when your blood pressure has fallen, or when your body is fighting an infection? The key lies in interoception, a little-known process through which the nervous […] Read more…
2025-10-13 15:02:24 +00:00 A few tiny molecular tweaks may explain why naked mole-rats live nearly ten times longer than similar species. Researchers believe the key to the naked mole-rat’s remarkable lifespan may come down to small but significant differences in just four amino acids. A recent study found that evolutionary changes in cGAS, an enzyme in the innate […] Read more…
2025-10-13 14:37:19 +00:00 Researchers uncover how cells develop and specialize, advancing prospects for regenerative dental treatments. Researchers at Science Tokyo have identified two separate stem cell lineages responsible for forming tooth roots and the alveolar bone that anchors teeth in the jaw.
