Researchers have revealed the regulatory mechanism of a specific protein that plays a key role in balancing the immune response triggered by viral infections in mammal cells. These findings could help drive the development of antiviral therapies and nucleic acid medicines to treat genetic disorders. The research is published in the journal Nucleic Acids Research.
Observing individual cells through microscopes can reveal a range of important cell biological phenomena that frequently play a role in human diseases, but the process of distinguishing single cells from each other and their background is extremely time-consuming—and a task that is well-suited for AI assistance.
Researchers from Skoltech and their colleagues have improved the properties of a carbon-based electrode material by exposing it to air plasma. Such treatment turned out to enhance electrode performance, which is the limiting factor for high-tech energy sources—particularly fuel cells. These are a promising technology for cleaner and more efficient electrical power generation. Published in the Journal of […]
In a new study published in Nature Chemistry, UNC-Chapel Hill researcher Ronit Freeman and her colleagues describe the steps they took to manipulate DNA and proteins—essential building blocks of life—to create cells that look and act like cells from the body. This accomplishment, a first in the field, has implications for efforts in regenerative medicine, drug delivery systems, and diagnostic tools.
Imagine being able to look inside a single cancer cell and see how it communicates with its neighbors. Scientists are celebrating a new technique that lets them study the fatty contents of cancer cells, one by one.
Immunity For Me But Not For Thee Authored by William Woodruff via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), Whether Presidential Immunity is a Good Thing or a Bad Thing Shouldn’t Depend Upon Party Affiliation “Whether and if so to what extent does a former President enjoy presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for conduct alleged to involve official acts during his tenure in office?” That is the question the Supreme Court will answer when it hears oral argument in Trump v. U.S. ...
The preparations for earthquakes, the strong and potentially deadly tremors, must go beyond the usual “duck, cover and hold” drills.

The 757th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron developed a self-care day called “Mindful Maintainer” that occurs every Friday to help maintainers enhance their resiliency and foster connections. Airmen rotate through the program weekly with activities coordinated by integrated resiliency training assistants who run the course. The sessions focus on strengthening maintainers’ communication skills and stress management.
Strength and Survival: Livingstone Etse Satekla, popularly known as Stonebwoy, is a testament to the indomitable spirit of a man who has turned adversity into strength. Surviving a devastating accident at the age of 14, Stonebwoy's journey from recovery to stardom is a powerful narrative of resilience that extends well beyond the borders of Ghana, touching hearts worldwide.
Fasting, a practice dating back centuries, has garnered attention for its potential to not only promote weight loss but also to boost the immune system on a restorative level. Fasting, in its various forms, involves abstaining from food for a specific duration. Intermittent fasting, as […]
Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham tells CNN’s Dana Bash that the Supreme Court will send Trump’s January 6 case “back to the lower courts to find out exactly what actions fall within presidential immunity and what are considered personal.”
