Researchers at WashU Medicine found that a small population of immune cells in the mouse intestine prevents allergic responses to food, suggesting that targeting such cells therapeutically could potentially lead to a new treatment for allergies.
Researchers are studying messenger RNA’s potential to treat and prevent an array of serious conditions—including cancer.
A powerful new software platform called the Playbook Workflow Builder is set to transform biomedical research by allowing scientists to conduct complex and customized data analyses without advanced programming skills. An article that describes the new platform was published in the April 3 online issue of the journal PLOS Computational Biology. Developed by a multi-institutional team that was led by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai investigators as part of the National Institutes of Health Common Fund Data Ecosystem (CFDE) program, researchers from across the United States developed the web-based platform that enables scientists to analyze and visualize their own data independently through an intuitive, interactive interface.
Microbial organisms – particularly Bacteria – dominate life on Earth, yet tracing their early history and how they have developed over time has long eluded scientists because they rarely fossilize.
In Rutgers Health study, nearly 40% of participants surveyed reported hearing gunshots multiple times throughout their lives
Coastal wetlands are crucial for providing animals with food and shelter during disturbances. However, these ecosystems are under threat from rapidly spreading non-native aquatic plants, climate change, and dam regulation. Northern pike, native predators in the St. Lawrence River, have been forced to spawn in less optimal, deeper nearshore areas due to the invasive hybrid cattail (Typha x glauca) and water level regulation.
A second-generation compound outperforms predecessor in the fight against coronavirus.
In 2022, the American Cancer Society (ACS) updated its nutrition and activity guidelines for cancer survivors, recommending they avoid obesity, stay physically active, eat a healthy diet, and limit alcohol intake. New research by ACS scientists shows a lifestyle aligned with these guidelines is associated with a lower mortality risk among non-smoking survivors of obesity-related cancers in the United States.
A new approach developed by researchers at Washington University in St. Louis converts nitrogen waste into valuable chemical product.
Nitrous oxide—better known as "laughing gas"—can potentially transform treatment for tough-to-beat depression. This centuries-old anesthetic gas targeted specific brain cells in mice and quickly reduced symptoms, according to new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, reported today in Nature Communications.
