Apoptosis is programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
Sepsis, one of the most acute and serious disease complications in the intensive care unit, is caused by various infections and results in life-threatening organ dysfunction.
Asian diets feature rice as a staple grain, contributing towards nearly 90% of the world's rice consumption.
A new research paper was published on the cover of Aging (listed as "Aging (Albany NY)" by Medline/PubMed and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 1, entitled, "Single-cell transcriptomics of peripheral blood in the aging mouse."
Researchers explored ways galectins can impact immunity and discussed the opportunities and challenges in the field.
Although rare compared to adult liver cancers, hepatoblastoma is the most common pediatric liver malignancy, and its incidence is increasing.
A new study in the journal Cell aimed to determine whether epigenetic changes are a cause of mammalian aging.
The most common type of liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is already the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally-;and cases are on the rise, both in the U.S. and worldwide.
A Wayne State University researcher has received a $1.7 million, five-year award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders of the National Institutes of Health for the study, "Targeting nitrative stress for treatment of cisplatin ototoxicity."
Many public health warnings have been issued against alcohol consumption, even in small quantities, though the evidence for such strict limits is controversial. The current study, published in the MDPI journal Nutrients, is a narrative review focused on clearing up some of the confusion associated with alcoholic drinks.
Researchers assessed the function of lipids in metabolic diseases.
A new research paper was published in Oncotarget's Volume 13 on December 17, 2022, entitled, "The role of pyrethroid derivatives in autophagy and apoptosis crosstalk signaling and potential risk for malignancies."
A Japanese research group has become the first to reveal that the checkerboard-like arrangement of cells in the inner ear's organ of Corti is vital for hearing.
UT Southwestern researchers have identified the molecular function of 87 inherited genetic variants that affect the risk of prostate cancer, and the majority appear to control the activity of genes located far away from the risk variants themselves.
A perplexing range of neurodegenerative diseases are known to attack distinct regions of the brain, causing severe cognitive and motor deficit.
Researchers examined the pathological impacts of the structural components of SARS-CoV-2 on human periodontal cells and tissue to understand the association between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and deteriorating oral health.
A new combination of drugs slowed the growth of cancer cells by an unexpected mechanism that may one day lead to improved treatment of cervical cancer, a UT Southwestern-led study published in Molecular Cancer Research suggests.
Necroptosis is a form of regulated cell death (RCD) similar to apoptosis, the most commonly studied type of RCD. In contrast to apoptosis, plasma membrane rupture in necroptotic cells occurs at early time points.
A recent Antioxidants study evaluated the effect of grape consumption on reducing UV-induced skin erythema.
In a new study, researchers examined how the innate immune system detects filoviruses.
Researchers estimated the incidence of new-onset diabetes in survivors of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) employing random-effects meta-analyses using the generic inverse variance method.
