Proteins are complex molecules that are made up of amino acids. They can be found in every cell in the body, and carry out vital processes that keep human beings alive. Mutations in proteins can lead to a multitude of diseases, the most common being cancer.

Study shows cutaneous touch neuronal cells to be critical for sexual receptiveness

Researchers studied the social relevance of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) Mrgprb4-lineage touch neurons in sexual touch and receptivity.

Single drop of blood can be used to measure thousands of molecules

Researchers at Stanford Medicine have shown they can measure thousands of molecules — some of which are signals of health — from a single drop of blood.

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals detailed blueprint of viral genome replication machinery

RNA viruses, such as the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, are in a life-and-death race the moment they infect a cell.

Targeting newly discovered signaling pathway could boost the potency of cancer therapeutics

Cells zealously protect the integrity of their genomes, because damage can lead to cancer or cell death. The genome - a cell's complete set of DNA - is most vulnerable while it is being duplicated before a cell divides. Cancer cells constantly are dividing, so their genomes are constantly in jeopardy.

Mosaic RBD nanoparticles offer 100% protection against SARS-CoV-2 in animal model

A recent PNAS journal study has sought to address the above-stated drawback and developed a new strategy that involves a self-assembling scaffold of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). This technique can develop nanoparticles containing evenly incorporated heterotypic antigens.

Researchers use multiplexed 3D imaging to perform molecular and morphological assessments of colorectal cancers

Researchers used multiplexed and three-dimensional imaging with machine-based learning and spatial statistics to perform molecular and morphological assessments of colorectal cancers (CRC).

Study reveals sex differences in response to drugs targeting tauopathies

Microglia are cells that are central to both brain health as well as disease progression in many neurological conditions.

Study shows spatial organization in tumor cells

Researchers investigated whether the observed tumor cellular heterogeneity and architecture result from stochastic and chaotic events, or whether there is more coordination in the histopathological chaos of cancer.

Study provides an estimate of people in the United States with VEXAS syndrome

About 13,200 men and another 2,300 women in the United States over age 50 are estimated to have VEXAS syndrome, according to a new study led by researchers at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

Researchers discover the gene responsible for radiation resistance in mutant IDH1 glioma

It's a good news, bad news story. Patients whose brain tumors have a mutated enzyme called IDH1 typically live longer than those without the mutation.

Transcriptomic analysis of placental tissue aids in understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 in pregnancy at the cellular level

Researchers explored the pathogenic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 in pregnancy using digital spatial profiling of placental tissue.

24 Jan 2023

Researchers identify potent pan-sarbecovirus antibodies from non-human primates vaccinated with an AS03 adjuvanted subunit SARS-CoV-2 vaccine

Researchers assessed the effectiveness of pan-sarbecovirus-neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.
