microRNA-203 – protection against skin cancer

An intermediary between unsaturated fatty acids and the genome has been identified

Many of the genes activated by unsaturated fatty acids are involved in the breakdown of these compounds for energy. Most likely, this mechanism protects the liver from the accumulation of unsaturated fatty acids.

Excess vitamin E may increase the risk of lung cancer

If prostate cancer does not give up, it is destroyed by blocking the Stat5 gene

Homozygous mutants of the second generation lived ten times longer than ordinary C.elegans, but they were sterile. Maybe it is possible to somehow compensate for the infertility associated with the age-1 gene and leave only a long life? A number of data points to the fact that it is impossible – at least in one action.

Salmonella is a tumor killer

You can fight HIV from the inside

Salmonella bacteria can be turned into micro-terminators that penetrate deep into malignant tumors, where traditional chemotherapy drugs cannot penetrate. Once at the destination, the bacteria begin to synthesize compounds that destroy tumor cells.

Induced polypotent stem cells: nanoparticles instead of viruses

What is the meaning of life? All the answers to this question come down to one thing – to live. Live happily ever after. A long life and a healthy, active old age is the oldest and most cherished dream of a person.

Immunity Switch: Innate/Acquired

A new method of vaccination against infectious diseases by instilling an oil emulsion containing various antigens into the nose causes the development of a pronounced immune response against the corresponding diseases.

Nerves in a test tube – another step

There are about a million atoms in the fibrinogen molecule, and it took scientists about six months to calculate the model of its stretching.

The corn genome has been decoded

The cosmetics industry, free from prejudices related to the correctness of the use of scientific terms, has long been juggling words such as "DNA", "genes", "signaling molecules", "genetic code" and others.

The Complete electronic Encyclopedia of Life

The new gene map will not only help scientists better understand the biology and genetics of corn, but will also accelerate the development of new varieties of this important food grain. Now researchers will have to carefully analyze the collected information and draw a lot of conclusions, both purely cognitive and practical.
