Moving Genesis Invitational: A New Venue After Wildfires

January 17, 2025

The Genesis Invitational, a significant golf event run by Tiger Woods’ foundation, is changing its location due to the recent wildfires around Los Angeles. The PGA Tour has decided to keep the event dates, February 13-16, but will hold it at a different site. The change comes after the wildfires, pa

Fish Tanks Reveal Clues about Brittle Bones

January 16, 2025

Brittle bone disorders, or FBDs, can cause people to break bones easily. Scientists are trying to figure out which genes are responsible for these conditions. One way they are doing this is by studying zebrafish. These tiny fish share many bone-building genes with humans. Researchers used a tool cal

The Journey of Proteins: How Genes React to Stress

January 14, 2025

Every protein goes through a life cycle, from birth to death. This is managed by the protein homeostasis system, which keeps proteins stable even when conditions change. But how does this system adapt to different stresses? Scientists used bacteria called Caulobacter crescentus to find out. They

A Mouse Model for Testing Gammaherpesvirus Vaccines

January 14, 2025

Gammaherpesviruses are known for causing cancer and lifelong infections in humans. Unfortunately, there are no approved vaccines for major types like Epstein-Barr virus or Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus. Scientists often use a virus called murine gammaherpesvirus-68 (MHV68) to study these infections in

Regrowing Fat: A New Approach with Stem Cells and Biodegradable Implants

January 13, 2025

Scientists are testing an innovative way to regenerate fat tissue using a biodegradable implant and stem cells. The implant, made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) mesh and a collagen sponge (CS), is seeded with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) known for their impressive ability to multiply and transfor

Finding Key Cancer Genes: A New Approach

January 12, 2025

Cancer, we know, is caused by tweaks in our genes. Scientists are hot on the trail of these mutated drivers, hoping to shed light on how cancer starts. But figuring out which genes are common or unique to different cancers is no walk in the park. This study aims to change that. Scientists have whipp

Predicting Stem Cell Bone Growth: Metabolomics and AI Team Up

January 6, 2025

Scientists often use stem cells to make artificial bones, but making sure these cells develop properly can be tricky. They've tried using omics technologies, like metabolomics, to check their quality. In a recent study, researchers combined metabolomics with machine learning to see if it could tell

Unraveling the Mystery of lncRNAs in Lung Cancer

January 5, 2025

Lung cancer keeps taking lives, with nearly 1. 8 million deaths globally in 2022. This highlights the urgent need for better ways to detect and treat it. Long noncoding RNAs, known as lncRNAs, are vital for cellular functions. They influence how genes work and send signals in the body. Recently, sci

Building Better Sperm: A New Way to Study Spermatogenesis

January 4, 2025

Imagine trying to figure out how to make healthy sperm in a lab. This isn't easy because spermatogenesis, the process of making sperm, is super complex. It's also the main reason why some men can't have kids. Scientists have been looking for a good way to mimic this process in the lab using animal t

Testing SUMO Proteins in Breast Cancer

January 2, 2025

Scientists have been looking into a particular protein called SUMO activating enzyme subunit 1, often shortened as SAE1. They want to understand its role in breast cancer. Using advanced computer-based studies and lab experiments, researchers found that SAE1 might speed up the growth of cancer cells
