The contraction process involves interactions between actin and myosin filaments within the sarcomeres to generate force. Recent research has achieved significant advances in functional design, ...

A new nanotube-based RNA delivery system boosts plant regeneration by switching off a molecule that blocks shoot growth, without changing the plant's DNA. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Plant biotechnology has ...

The scientists, co-led by Wei Wang, PhD, and colleagues, performed a side-by-side genetic comparison between mammal species—including rabbits—that can regenerate ear tissue and those—including ...

Regeneration is a trick many animals, including lizards, starfish, and octopuses, have mastered. Axolotls, a salamander species originating in Mexico, can regrow pretty much everything from severed ...

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center researchers have identified a metabolic switch that determines whether intestinal stem cells become absorptive or secretory cells. Manipulating the enzyme OGDH ...

A blood test based on whole-genome sequencing achieved 99% sensitivity and specificity for detecting HPV-positive head and neck cancer. Early postoperative detection of circulating tumor DNA predicted ...

Azealia Banks is here to do to your root chakra what she did to Matty Healy: Destroy it utterly. Just kidding, she’s going to be very nice to it. Banks dropped a series of guided meditations on X this ...

A fusion strategy based on deep reinforcement learning that integrates the abilities of doctors and robots to address position-based soft tissue deformation manipulation tasks. All three proposed ...

Glucose is life's main energy source. But a new study reveals a surprising role as a master manipulator of tissue maturation, hinting at its importance in diabetes and cancer. The sugar glucose, which ...
