The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has been at the forefront of nutritional science research and education for over 100 years. In a new paper, Illinois nutrition professors and former directors of the Division of Nutritional Sciences John Erdman and Sharon Donovan trace the illustrious history and significant impacts that the U. of I. has had on human and animal health.
A recent study sheds light on Panax notoginseng, also known as Sanchi, by delving into its phytochemical profile and pharmacological potential. The research provides an in-depth review of the biosynthesis and regulation of ginsenosides, the herb's primary bioactive compounds known for their therapeutic effects.
Scientists have decoded the genetic blueprint of Atractylodes lancea, a prized herb in traditional Chinese medicine. Through comprehensive genome resequencing, the study unveils how natural variations drive the plant's evolution and metabolic adaptations, particularly affecting the production of key medicinal compounds.
Researchers have for the first time identified degeneration-associated “molecular markers” – observable changes in cells and their gene-regulating networks – that are shared by several forms of dementia that affect different regions of the brain.
High blood pressure disrupts natural day-and-night blood pressure dipping patterns in males and females, according to a new study from Tulane University School of Medicine.
Celebrities have a long history of entering the political space to endorse candidates, specifically in high-interest races, and this presidential election is no different. Last night, following the presidential debate, Taylor Swift - arguably the biggest celebrity in the world - came out in support of Kamala Harris.
Temple University’s Sbarro Institute for Cancer Research and Molecular Medicine has benefited from the support of Pennsylvania State Sen. Ryan Aument since he took office in 2014.
The number of people living in a different place from their place of birth is increasing year by year. Although women have always been involved in migratory movements, today they are increasingly doing so independently. Women are migrating from the Global South to higher-income countries.
The American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) proudly announces Dr. Devon I. Rubin as the 2024 Innovation Award recipient for his forward-thinking contributions to the neuromuscular (NM) and electrodiagnostic (EDX) community.
The MoPill system represents a significant leap forward in how we can diagnose and treat gastrointestinal conditions.
Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) announced that the 『Data Quality Standard for Data Analysis & Machine Learning』, which has been developed to promote the international standardization in the AI, has finally been established as an official international standard.
Novel treatments, including targeted therapies and antibody drug conjugates, as well as research into improving quality of life for patients with breast cancer, headline studies led by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and presented at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2024 in Barcelona, Spain.
Redlining from the 1930s, marked minority and low-income neighborhoods as “hazardous,” which influenced mortgage and insurance decisions. Results show that redlined areas have less greenspace and more pavement, intensifying urban heat. While higher temperatures generally decreased walking in “still desirable” or “best” neighborhoods, this effect was not significant in “definitely declining” or “hazardous” areas, possibly due to greater reliance on walking for essential activities. Findings underscore the lasting impact of discriminatory policies on environmental vulnerability and physical activity.
Varda Space Industries, Inc., the world's first in-space pharmaceutical processing and hypersonic Earth re-entry logistics company, together with SSPC, the Research Ireland Centre for Pharmaceuticals, today announced a research collaboration that aims to advance mathematical modeling of crystallization in microgravity, the first such framework that considers polymorphism.
Increased capabilities in the human-occupied submersible Alvin open a window on a rarely seen behavior
Researchers in ACS Central Science report a sugar-like polymer that traps heavy metals within insoluble clumps for easy removal. In proof-of-concept tests, the polymer removed ionic cadmium and lead from river water spiked with these persistent contaminants.
An innovative approach in battery technology, known as carrier pre-intercalation, is revolutionizing post-lithium batteries by enhancing electrode materials' electrochemical performance. This method effectively narrows the performance gap with lithium-ion batteries, offering a promising strategy to sustainable and efficient power solutions.
