Kinase inhibitors can accelerate the degradation of target proteins, study reveals

Protein kinases are the molecular switches of the cell. They control growth, division, communication, and survival by attaching phosphate groups to other proteins.

UBC researchers reveal how statins trigger muscle damage

Statins have transformed heart health, saving millions of lives by lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

New imaging method reveals nanodomains inside ALS-linked protein droplets

Inside the cell reside many tiny assembly factories and warehouses that gather together all of the proteins and RNAs-which carry out instructions from our DNA-that a living being needs.

Regenerative medicine offers a pathway toward curing type 1 diabetes

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the specific destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells.

New study links inherited mitochondrial DNA mutation to disrupted immune balance

Scientists have discovered how a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial disorders, which often lead to severe disability and death.

Pandemic lockdown measures linked to increased developmental concerns in young children

Lockdown and social distancing measures during the Covid-19 pandemic were associated with increased developmental concerns about young children in Scotland, research suggests.

One Health approach needed in research into zoonotic disease risks

A new evidence brief, based on a study by the Juno Evidence Alliance conducted in collaboration with CABI's One Health Hub, has highlighted that a One Health approach is needed in research into zoonotic disease risks around the world.

Rare inherited variants shape risk and outcomes in pediatric brain and spinal cord tumors

Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Children's National Hospital in Washington D.C. are uncovering how rare inherited genetic variants contribute to the development of brain and spinal cord tumors in children.

Study reveals early mandibular catch-up growth in infants with Robin sequence

Robin sequence is characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and often cleft palate, leading to airway obstruction and feeding challenges.

UBQLN2 liquid droplets emerge as key catalysts of early α-synuclein aggregation

Parkinson's disease (PD) is an age-related, progressive neurodegenerative disorder. The hallmark of PD pathogenesis is the Lewy bodies (LBs) that accumulate in neurons in the substantia nigra region of the brain, damaging these neurons and leading to the motor symptoms of the disease.

Using a psychedelic to explore the relationship between alpha waves and self-awareness

When people use a psychedelic called dimethyltryptamine (DMT), they experience a temporary loss of their sense of self. DMT interacts with a frequency of brain activity associated with self-referential processes (alpha waves), but it's unclear how this activity relates to self-awareness.

Head trauma impairs brain waste clearance in professional fighters

The brain's waste-clearing system significantly declines in function with repeated head impacts, according to a new study of cognitively impaired professional boxers and mixed martial arts fighters. The findings will be presented next week at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America.
