Revolutionary real-time microscopy unveils secrets of motor protein behavior

A team led by Professor Seo Dae-ha of the Department of Physics and Chemistry at DGIST (President Lee Kun-woo) has developed new real-time microscopy technology and successfully observed the behavior of “motor proteins”, which may hold the key to unraveling the efficient material transport strategy of cells. The research team used nanoparticle probe, high-resolution microscopy, […]

New “GPS nanoparticle” delivers a genetic punch to the protein implicated in tumor spread

A newly developed “GPS nanoparticle” injected intravenously can home in on cancer cells to deliver a genetic punch to the protein implicated in tumor growth and spread, according to researchers from Penn State. They tested their approach in human cell lines and in mice to effectively knock down a cancer-causing gene, reporting that the technique […]

AI-designed drug candidate shows promise for gastric acid inhibition

Researchers at Nagoya University in Japan created and improved artificial intelligence (AI) designs to synthesize a candidate compound for a new gastric acid inhibitor with a better binding affinity than existing drugs. Their findings, published in Communications Biology, suggest a new way to work in tandem with AI to develop pharmaceuticals. Stomach acid is a […]

Strong antibody response and nasal cytokines may protect young children from severe COVID-19

New research helps explain why young children have lower rates of severe COVID-19 than adults. A study of infants and young children found those who acquired SARS-CoV-2 had a strong, sustained antibody response to the virus and high levels of inflammatory proteins in the nose but not in the blood. This immune response contrasts with […]

Examining the cardiac pathology in fatal cases of yellow fever

In a recent study published in eBioMedicine, researchers examined the histopathological features and immunohistochemical and proteomic characteristics of yellow fever (YF)-related myocardial damage. Study: Understanding yellow fever-associated myocardial injury: an autopsy study. Image Credit: nechaevkon/Shutterstock.com Background Yellow fever is characterized by a hemorrhagic fever of viral etiology with significant morbidity prevalent in portions of Africa and South […]

Bacteriophage cocktail can effectively disrupt Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms on medical equipment

In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers investigated whether a cocktail of bacteriophages coding for the depolymerase polysaccharide could effectively disrupt Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms. Study: Bacteriophages with depolymerase activity in the control of antibiotic resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms. Image Credit: AnaLysiSStudiO/Shutterstock.comKlebsiella pneumoniae has been linked to several illnesses, including pneumonia, urogenital infection, liver […]

Researchers unravel structure of MCM8/9 enzyme linked to infertility and cancer

Scientific research requires patience. The rewards are not always immediate, and the technology needed does not always exist. Michael A. Trakselis, Ph.D., professor and director of graduate affairs for the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Baylor University, understands this. For 15 years, Trakselis has been interested in the MCM8/9 enzyme. Part of the minichromosome […]

Severe COVID-19 may cause long-term changes to innate immune system

Severe COVID-19 may cause long-lasting alterations to the innate immune system, the first line of defense against pathogens, according to a small study funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health. These changes may help explain why the disease can damage so many different organs and […]
