Scientists Reveal Adipocyte’s Metabolic Role and Identify Treatment Targets

Recent research underscores the critical role of adipocytes in storing fat, vital for organismal survival. Dysfunctional adipocytes can lead to metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease,…

Bacterial RNAs have shorter lifetimes than expected

HIRI scientists develop a novel statistical approach for more accurate estimation of decay rates. The decay of ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a crucial mechanism for controlling gene expression in response…

New synapse type discovered through spatial proteomics

Researchers led by Ralf Jungmann at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) of Biochemistry and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Munich, in collaboration with Eugenio F. Fornasiero and Felipe Opazo, both group leaders at…

UIC engineers ‘symphonize’ cleaner ammonia production

Low temperature, regenerative process saves energy and efficiently produces common chemical. Among the many chemicals we use every day, ammonia is one of the worst for the atmosphere. The nitrogen-based…

New method developed to isolate HIV particles

Researchers from Leipzig and Ulm break new ground for faster diagnosis of the dangerous virus. Researchers at Leipzig University and Ulm University have developed a new method to isolate HIV…

A brain circuit that spoils your appetite

Specialized nerve cells in the brain inhibit food intake during nausea. Satiety, nausea or anxiety can all lead to a loss of appetite. Delaying eating can be a healthy move…
