The GENOXPHOS (Functional Genetics of the Oxidative Phosphorylation System) group at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) has discovered a crucial role of sodium in the ...

A new study offers a fresh perspective on the role of sodium in mitochondrial physiology and points the way to future research into the relationship between complex I disorders and a host of neuronal ...

Material scientists at Columbia Engineering created a novel battery type that will revolutionize renewable energy storage.

Mice express full-length protein ZBP1-L as well as an alternatively-spliced shorter isoform (ZBP1-S) containing only its two ...

Researchers have identified key cellular control sites that regulate gene expression and prevent the activation of "cryptic" ...

Astrocytes in the brain exhibit significant regional diversity, but the mechanisms controlling their heterogeneity remain ...

Sickness-induced sleep is a behavior conserved across species that promotes recovery from illness, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that interleukin-6-like cytokine ...

In this study, we investigated the neuronal activity of the dentate gyrus (DG) with electrophysiological and optical imaging tools during sleep-wake cycles. We found that the activity of major ...

A New Ventilator-on-a-Chip Model to Study Lung Damage Sep. 19, 2024 — Scientists are now able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the ...
