Anticancer Genes
The term “anticancer genes” typically refers to genes that play a role in the prevention or inhibition of cancer development and progression. When anticancer genes…
Cell Death
Cell death is a normal and necessary part of the cell’s life cycle. It is the failure of a biological cell to perform its functions.…
Viral Eukaryogenesis
Viral eukaryogenesis is the theory that the cell nucleus of eukaryotic life forms evolved from a large DNA virus in an endosymbiotic relationship with a…
A Mediterranean Diet Lowers the Risk of Cognitive Decline in the Elderly
The Mediterranean diet consists of a high intake of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and olive oil, as well as a moderate intake of…
Biomarkers of Mental Illness are Identified using Brain Imaging
Brain imaging has been critical in identifying biomarkers of mental illness, revealing important insights into the neural mechanisms underlying various psychiatric disorders. Biomarkers are measurable…
Obesity has been linked to neurodegeneration via insulin resistance
Although the relationship between obesity, insulin resistance, and neurodegeneration is complex and not fully understood, there is evidence to support it. Researchers at the Fred…
Using Molecular Power to Generate Electricity at the Nanoscale
Harnessing molecular power for nanoscale electricity generation is an intriguing and rapidly evolving field of study. Nanoscale materials and structures have distinct properties that can…
Paleovirology – a branch of science
Paleovirology is a branch of science that studies ancient viruses and their interactions with hosts across evolutionary time scales. It is the study of extinct…
Integrated Stress Response
The integrated stress response is a cellular stress response conserved in eukaryotic cells that reduces protein synthesis while increasing the expression of specific genes in…
Pinocytosis – in Cellular Biology
The cell membrane invaginates during pinocytosis, forming small vesicles that bring extracellular fluid and its dissolved solutes into the cell. Pinocytosis, also known as fluid…
Trans-endocytosis – a biological process
Trans-endocytosis is the biological process by which material produced in one cell is endocytosed (enters) into another cell. If the material is large enough, this…
