Depressive symptoms are common in people with asthma, but increasing evidence suggests they may be driven by biological processes that differ from those seen in major depressive disorder. Researchers from Hiroshima University in Japan, working with collaborators, have identified a biological difference in how depression appears in adults with asthma. Their study found that people […]

A common artificial sweetener may have more complex biological effects than previously thought. A widely used artificial sweetener may not be as biologically “inert” as once believed. Research has raised concerns that a little-known chemical linked to sucralose, the main ingredient in Splenda, can damage DNA and interfere with key processes in the body. Splenda […]

Hidden within ancient microbial structures, scientists have uncovered a partnership that may mirror one of life’s most transformative moments, the emergence of complex cells. Stromatolites may look like unremarkable, dark rock formations, but they are anything but lifeless. These structures, along with similar microbial mats, are built by layers of microorganisms that have been shaping […]

Cells have their own hidden “wind system” that rapidly moves proteins and could change cancer research. Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified a previously unknown system inside cells that works like internal “trade winds,” rapidly carrying essential proteins to the cell’s leading edge. This discovery is changing how scientists understand cell movement, […]

Scientists have made the first experimental observation of matter wave diffraction in a short-lived electron-positron atom. A defining insight that sets quantum physics apart from classical physics is that matter behaves in unexpected ways at very small scales. One of the most important ideas to emerge was wave-particle duality, which shows that particles can also […]

Ancient DNA and protein analysis reveal that modern Old Irish Goats are closely related to Bronze Age populations. This continuity highlights both their historical importance and the need for conservation. New findings show that the Old Irish Goat is genetically connected to animals that lived in Ireland around 3,000 years ago during the Late Bronze […]
