What scientists previously believed about the genesis of galaxies in the cosmos is being challenged by the discovery of six huge galaxies in the early universe.

Scientists summarize the methods used to explore how the Earth's magnetic field influences the behaviour of various animal species. This review is an ideal starting point for scientists wishing to enter this fascinating but poorly-understood topic in modern sensory biology.

Therefore, the researcher developed a framework to determine the differences and similarities between planets of the same systems. And in doing so, he discovered that there are not two, but four such system architectures.

The researchers created new human organoid models of fatty liver disease. They used these models to shed light on drug responses and built a CRISPR-screening platform to find new disease mediators and potential therapeutic targets. These models will aid in the testing and development of novel treatments for fatty liver disease, as well as in gaining a better understanding of the disease's biology.

According to a study, when scientists transformed a single regulatory gene in a sea anemone species, a stinging cell that normally shoots a venomous miniature harpoon for hunting and self-defence switched to shooting a sticky thread that entangles prey.

Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have found that women who developed mood and anxiety disorders associated with pregnancy and childbirth had specific altered proteins circulating in their bloodstream in the third trimester.

When the artery that supplies the stomach and liver bulges and ruptures, 50 percent of patients die before they reach the hospital. This "silent killer," known as abdominal aortic aneurysm, killed Albert Einstein and is responsible for nearly 5,000 deaths in the United States each year. Researchers have discovered new clues that could eventually lead to earlier detection methods that could save lives in the future.

Chemical compounds in tobacco smoke alter the DNA of lung cells in ways that can lead to cancer in the longer term. Researchers at ETH Zurich have now been able to precisely localise such changes for the first time.

According to a new study by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai fasting may be detrimental to fighting off infection and could lead to an increased risk of heart disease.

According to a new study, when fragile patients are connected to resources, such as chats with a physician about possible outcomes and assistance in preparing their body for surgery, they are less likely to die one year later.

A basic element, salt, could play a significant role in the energy transition to lower-carbon energy sources, according to a new study sponsored by the Bureau of Economic Geology at The University of Texas at Austin.

When two black holes collide into each other to form a new bigger black hole, they violently roil spacetime around them, sending ripples called gravitational waves outward in all directions.

Living organisms have a knack for persisting in the face of challenges. For instance, when genes malfunction, organisms may be able to compensate by activating redundant genes with similar functions, called paralogs.

According to a research team co-led by a Cornell University astronomer, current state-of-the-art instrumentation being sent to Mars to collect and analyze evidence of life might not be sensitive enough to make accurate assessments.

PCB2DG, an anti-inflammatory polyphenol, inhibits glutamine absorption by targeting and directly interacting with the main glutamine transporter protein, alanine serine cysteine transporter 2 (ASCT2). This reduction in intracellular glutamine accumulation in CD4+ T cells also inhibits the production of interferon-gamma, or IFN-, indicating that dietary polyphenol therapy for autoimmune illnesses may be beneficial in the future. Furthermore, one of the study's major accomplishments was the discovery of ASCT2 as the target protein of PCB2DG, which opens up new avenues for research into the effects of dietary polyphenols on immunological responses.

A novel approach to pain management for men following urethroplasty surgery can minimise the need for powerful opioid medicines without compromising pain control, according to research.

In Australia's eastern shore, male whales are giving up singing to lure a partner in favour of battling other male whales for dominance.

A new study has discovered that children as early as four years old had indications of a network in the brain present in adults that deals with tough cognitive challenges

The well-being of calves, including their physical and emotional health, is always top of mind for those in the dairy industry, particularly during the weaning stage

A study revealed a crucial reason to keep in touch with friends and family. Social isolation promotes memory and learning deficiencies, as well as other behavioural abnormalities
