Unveiling a new mechanism that accelerates aging of adipose tissues
A research team has identified a novel target responsible for aging-related chronic metabolic disorders.
Deep learning for new protein design
Deep learning methods have been used to augment existing energy-based physical models in ‘do novo’ or from-scratch computational protein design, resulting in a 10-fold increase in success rates verified in the lab for binding a designed protein with it…
Scientists uncover a startling–and exploitable–coordination of gene expression in tumors
A new study has identified a pair of genes whose expression by a type of immune cell within tumors is predictive of outcomes for cancer patients and is linked to a vast network of gene expression programs, engaged by multiple cell types in the tumor mi…
Study links long-term artificial sweetener intake to increased body fat adipose tissue volume
Researchers studied the relationship between dietary intake and cardiovascular disease risk factors.
Novel machine learning blood test detects cancers with genome-wide mutations in single molecules of cell-free DNA
Novel blood testing technology that combines genome-wide sequencing of single molecules of DNA shed from tumors and machine learning may allow earlier detection of lung and other cancers.
Scientists help discover the highest-energy light coming from the sun
New research details the discovery of the highest-energy light ever observed from the sun.
Outdoor air pollution may increase non-lung cancer risk in older adults
Chronic exposure to fine particulate air pollutants (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) may increase non-lung cancer risk in older adults, according to a new study. In a cohort study of millions of Medicare beneficiaries, the researchers found that expo…
