Real time imaging reveals how visual experience rewires the brain

Scientists have long known that the brain's visual system isn't fully hardwired from the start-it becomes refined by what babies see-but the authors of a new MIT study still weren't prepared for the degree of rewiring they observed when they took a first-ever look at the process in mice as it happened in real-time.

Innovative approach for the development of next-generation cancer therapies targeting FGFR2/3

Aberrations in fibroblast growth factor receptors FGFR2/3 are major drivers of many cancers-including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, endometrial, breast, gastric, and bladder cancers.

Novel tool offers a glimpse into the black box of ALT in aggressive cancers

Each time a cell divides, a small section of each chromosome's protective cap - the telomere - is worn away. Most cells use an enzyme called telomerase to help mitigate this loss, but 10% to 15% of cancers have another mechanism called the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) pathway.

First large-scale stem cell bank created to investigate Alzheimer’s genetic risk factors

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common, debilitating neurodegenerative disease affecting about 10 percent of people over the age of 65 and one third of people aged 85 and above. Besides environmental factors, the genes have a strong influence on whether or not a person develops AD during their lifetime.

Study uncovers the molecular evolutionary strategies of the OxPhos system

Mitochondria are the body's "energy factories," and their proper function is essential for life. Inside mitochondria, a set of complexes called the oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) system acts like a biochemical assembly line, transforming oxygen and nutrients into usable energy.

New technique aligns stem cells to boost healing power

A new way to grow stem cells may help them release more of the signaling proteins they use to repair tissue, potentially improving future treatments.

New insights into nature's most remarkable innovation- the ability to sustain a successful pregnancy

An international research team led by scientists from the University of Vienna has uncovered new insights into how specialized cell types and communication networks at the interface between mother and fetus evolved over millions of years.

The clever ways Neanderthals got their fat long before modern humans

Neanderthals at Neumark-Nord, Germany, systematically transported and processed the bones of at least 172 large mammals to extract nutrient-rich "bone grease" nearly 125,000 years ago. This finding rewrites the timeline for large-scale fat processing, revealing unexpectedly complex resource strategies among Neanderthals.

Evolutionary mutation weakens human immune response to solid tumors

New research from UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center has uncovered an evolutionary change that may explain why certain immune cells in humans are less effective at fighting solid tumors compared to non-human primates.

New strategy enhances immunotherapy effectiveness against glioblastoma by utilizing gut microbes

Advanced treatments, known as immunotherapies that activate T cells—our body's immune cells—to eliminate cancer cells, have shown limited efficacy as standalone therapies for glioblastoma, the most lethal form of brain tumor.
