Obesity is a global epidemic and a major cause of morbidity and mortality because it increases the risk for comorbidities, ...

A research team at Leibniz-HKI has described a new enzyme that renders the highly toxic molecule malleicyprol harmless.

Imagine if our bodies could grow new organs throughout our entire lives. Plants do this constantly, thanks to tiny, powerful ...

‘Enzymes are the workhorses of life,’ says Carlos Acevedo-Rocha, a senior researcher at the Technical University of Denmark, who was not involved with developing the new model. ‘They catalyse complex ...

Summary: Researchers have identified how a single mutation in the GPX4 enzyme causes neurons to undergo ferroptosis, leading to severe early-onset dementia. The study provides the first molecular ...

Researchers have uncovered a surprising way the brain switches pain on, revealing that neurons can release an enzyme outside the cell that activates pain signals without disrupting normal movement or ...

The latest trends in software development from the Computer Weekly Application Developer Network. NTT, Inc. used its recent NTT R&D Forum in Tokyo to detail a new AI technology called the Large Action ...

In IAV-infected wild-type AECII, ELOVL5 promoted inflammation resolution and cell proliferation through both regulating lipid metabolism (promoting PUFAs generation while decreasing eicosanoid levels) ...

NUDT5 enzyme acts as a molecular scaffold that maintains metabolic balance. Inside every cell, a finely tuned metabolic network determines when to build, recycle or stop producing essential molecules.

Scientists discovered a key molecular switch to keep neurons healthy by controlling the disassembly and assembly of their energy-generating powerhouses, the mitochondria. The study illustrates how a ...
