Researchers have developed a new method to grow artificial muscle tissues that can twitch and flex in multiple directions. This could lead to significant breakthroughs in the field of soft robotics.

A protein called angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2) can both inhibit and encourage blood vessel changes critical for sepsis, a leading cause of hospital deaths worldwide.

The synergistic effects of forest structure, the composition of the tree and fungal communities and soil biogeochemical processes seem to have more influence on how much carbon is being sequestered above and below ground than previously thought.

Researchers have found that lecanemab was probably less effective in females than males in the Phase 3 trial of the drug. However, there was insufficient evidence to say the drug was totally ineffective in females.

In a longitudinal study of Hispanic mothers, researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC found a new way to identify women who face an elevated risk for hypertension but are overlooked by current medical guidelines.

Researchers have developed a streamlined way of producing the complex ring-shaped molecular structures used in organic electronics. The new method is scalable and could revolutionize the production of solar cells, displays and transistors.

New research reveals that the earliest days of embryo development have a measurable impact on a person’s future health and aging.

Researchers at the Stowers Institute discovered how selfish genes manipulate inheritance by forming toxic protein clusters. These genes, found in yeast, evolve rapidly to outpace genetic suppression but can also self-destruct, causing infertility.

Researchers demonstrate how breast cancer and its treatments contribute to accelerated aging in survivors. Breast cancer patients showed signs of faster biological aging compared to cancer-free individuals, with long-term lasting effects.

A new study by UCLA Health has discovered what researchers say is the first drug to fully reproduce the effects of physical stroke rehabilitation in model mice.
