Proteins from the liver may cause Alzheimer's in the brain
A probable cause of Alzheimer's disease is the leakage from blood into the brain of fat-carrying particles transporting toxic proteins, researchers claim.
From egg to adult: insights into human embryonic development
How a human develops from a single fertilised egg to a fully grown adult is a fundamental question in biomedical science.
Radiation therapy effectiveness influenced by gut fungi
Intestinal microorganisms help regulate anti-tumour immune responses to radiation treatments, and fungi and bacteria have opposing effects on those responses.
