A virus may cripple a cell’s power supply simply by producing too much of a molecule the cell needs to survive. New research from the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (VMBS) suggests that an overload of RNA can directly impair mitochondria, the microscopic power generators that supply cells with usable energy.

Scientists Discover How the Brain Adapts When the Rules Suddenly Change
New study shows how the frontoparietal cortex manages information flow and guides responses. The frontoparietal cortex, the brain’s information hub, helps coordinate responses when circumstances change. While driving, for example, the brain must draw on a remembered route and the skills needed to operate the car while also responding to a street closure or changing […]
Depression May Change What Children Notice in Other People’s Faces
A new eye-tracking study reveals how depression shapes children’s attention to happy and sad faces. Depression may change which emotions hold a child’s attention, with the pattern differing according to whether their mother has experienced depression. A study from Binghamton University, State University of New York, found that increasing depressive symptoms were associated with greater […]

A Little-Known Protein Could Point to a New Way To Treat Alzheimer’s
A study suggests that increasing SORLA protein levels could help treat Alzheimer’s disease and other disorders involving tau protein. Increasing SORLA, a protein with a protective role in the brain, helped mice withstand damage from tau tangles, the toxic protein clumps associated with Alzheimer’s disease. The findings suggest that boosting SORLA could offer a way […]
