Stopping a pervasive bacterium that makes millions sick each year

As we head outdoors this summer, scientists are working to clip the long, flexible appendages that enable the common bacterium Campylobacter jejuni to make its way from undercooked poultry and natural waterways into our intestinal tract where it makes millions of us sick each year.

Discovery suggests a new way to slow or stop metastatic spread of pancreatic cancer

Pancreatic cancer, though rare, is one of the deadliest of cancers, killing nearly 50,000 people yearly and doing so quickly, primarily because it metastasizes rapidly through the body. Barely one in 10 people survive beyond five years.

Study elucidates the molecular mechanisms of acetylcholine for learning and memory

Acetylcholine (ACh) is a neuromodulator with a central role in aversive learning-;rapid conditioning to unpleasant smell, taste, or touch.

Study uncovers cryptic vulnerabilities in RET oncogene that could aid in anti-cancer drug design

RET is a receptor protein with tyrosine kinase activity that can transfer a phosphate group from ATP to other molecules modifying their shape and function in signaling pathways that are essential to organogenesis and tissue maintenance.

Mutation in SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein found to enhance replication and pathogenicity

Researchers investigated a highly variable region at residues 203 to 205 in the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) nucleocapsid (N) protein.

SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern exhibit divergent interactions with host proteases

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College assessed the cleavability of the spike (S) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants of concern (VOCs) and related coronaviruses by several proteases of the host.

The potential mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 to induce DNA damage

Researchers described potential mechanisms of coronaviruses that could lead to DNA damage and the potential link between SARS-CoV-2 activity and such mechanisms.

New research provides credible estimates for prevalence of Alzheimer’s-like brain disorder

New National Institutes of Health-funded research shows that the prevalence of brain changes from Limbic-predominant Age-related TDP-43 Encephalopathy (LATE) may be roughly 40% in older adults and as high as 50% in people with Alzheimer's disease.

The potential role of Ginkgo biloba L. folium extract in the management of COVID-19

Researchers explored the effectiveness of Ginkgo biloba L. folium extract (EGb) in the management of COVID-19 severity.

Cofilin could be a potential target for mitigating atherosclerosis at early stage, finds study

A joint research team at LKS Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong (HKUMed) and Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) has discovered the molecular mechanisms of how pathological condition-mimicking mechanical stimuli lead to the early progression of atherosclerosis, a leading cause of vascular disease worldwide.

New research may open a window to treating aggressive form of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Survival has improved greatly in children with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). But a certain form of ALL that occurs mostly in babies is still very lethal, with a survival rate below 50 percent: B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia with rearrangements of the mixed lineage leukemia gene, or MLL B-ALL.
