Trojan horse method gives malaria parasites a taste of their own medicine
More than a quarter of Australians over the age of 50 take cholesterol-lowering drugs to prevent heart disease and strokes, but our bodies also need cholesterol to survive. Now, scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) say its role as.....»»
New cobalt complex triggers ferroptosis in cancer cells
In programmed cell death, certain signaling molecules initiate a kind of suicide program to cause cells to die in a controlled manner. This is an essential step to eliminate damaged cells or to control the number of cells in certain tissues, for exam.....»»

Lab experiment shows Joro spider heart rates fluctuate less under stress
A pair of entomologists at the University of Georgia has found that Joro spider heart rates fluctuate less when they are experiencing stress compared to similar spiders. In their study, published in the journal Physiological Entomology, Andrew Davis.....»»
International team discovers key protein that helps cells maintain their identity
A discovery regarding Mrc1 (Mediator of Replication Checkpoint 1)—a fission yeast protein involved in DNA replication—has been published in Cell. The discovery is the result of an international research collaboration, led by Professors Genevieve.....»»
Align or die: Revealing unknown mechanism essential for bacterial cell division
A previously unknown mechanism of active matter self-organization essential for bacterial cell division follows the motto "dying to align": Misaligned filaments "die" spontaneously to form a ring structure at the center of the dividing cell. The stud.....»»
