Mayo Clinic study: High-intensity aerobic exercise can reverse cellular aspects of aging

Everyone knows that exercise is good for you, but what type of training helps most, especially when you're older -- say over 65? A Mayo Clinic study says it's high-intensity aerobic exercise, which can reverse some cellular aspects of aging. The findings appear in Cell Metabolism.

Researchers discover intestinal quiescent stem cells that are resistant to chemotherapy

The intestine has a high rate of cellular regeneration due to the wear and tear originated by its function degrading and absorbing nutrients and eliminating waste. The entire cell wall is renewed once a week approximately.

New research reveals link between sickle cell trait and increased risk of developing kidney failure

New research indicates that being born with one copy of the sickle gene puts an individual at elevated risk for developing kidney failure requiring dialysis.

Scientists uncover Achilles' heel in unique kind of immune memory cells

The capacity for memory isn't exclusive to the brain. The immune system, with its sprawling network of diverse cell types, can recall the pathogens it meets, helping it to swiftly neutralize those intruders upon future encounters.

New research identifies signal that appears to trigger retinal regeneration in zebrafish

If you were a fish and your retina was damaged, it could repair itself and your vision would be restored in a few weeks.

UCLA study provides new insights into how the brain works

A new UCLA study could change scientists' understanding of how the brain works — and could lead to new approaches for treating neurological disorders and for developing computers that "think" more like humans.

New combination antibiotic therapy overcomes pernicious infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria

Researchers have known that part of the challenge in treating penicillin-resistant infections lies in understanding the way bacteria inactivate penicillin antibiotics.

Study identifies therapeutic target for diabetic retinopathy

Specific cells in the retina trigger inflammation and vision impairment associated with diabetes, according to new research out of Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.

Scientists pinpoint key biological mechanism that can prevent proliferation of insulin-producing cells

If you become resistant to insulin, a condition that is a precursor to type 2 diabetes, your body tries to compensate by producing more of the "beta" cells in the pancreas that produce the critical hormone.

Researchers discover unexpected link between brain development and tumor invasion

Researchers from Turku Centre for Biotechnology have observed that a protein called SHANK prevents the spread of breast cancer cells to the surrounding tissue.

Researchers develop optimized sensors to study biochemical underpinnings of learning and memory

Learning and memory are crucial aspects of everyday life. When we learn, our neurons use chemical and molecular signals to change their shapes and strengthen connections between neurons, a process known as synaptic plasticity.

Researchers identify potential alcoholism mechanisms linked to dynamical dopamine imbalance

Researchers from the Higher School of Economics, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, Indiana University and the Russian Academy of Sciences Nizhny Novgorod Institute of Applied Physics have identified potential alcoholism mechanisms, associated with altered dopaminergic neuron response to complex dynamics of prefrontal cortex neurones affecting dopamine release.

Mayo Clinic researchers discover three new senolytic drugs

Mayo Clinic researchers have uncovered three new agents to add to the emerging repertoire of drugs that aim to delay the onset of aging by targeting senescent cells - cells that contribute to frailty and other age-related conditions.
