Understanding how tumors manipulate their microenvironment is key to improving cancer immunotherapy. A recent study has revealed that PKM2, a metabolic enzyme released from necrotic tumor cells, acts ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

Using the boxplot analysis (Figure 1) which showed the variability of the concentration of Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn and Na, it was possible to observe that for Ca the concentration was highest in the leaflet ...

This important work offers a fresh perspective central to merozoite surface biology and potential implications on vaccine design, challenging the dogma that MSPs are indispensable invasion engines.

Scientists have pioneered a new way to monitor sodium levels in the blood—without drawing a single drop. By combining terahertz radiation and optoacoustic detection, they created a non-invasive system ...

Wang, Y. , Yong, T. , Wang, Y. , Yang, Y. and Li, X. (2025) Core-Shell VN@PCNs Nanoreactors as Cathode Materials for ...

In a new study, researchers demonstrate long-term, non-invasive monitoring of blood sodium levels using a system that combines optoacoustic detection with terahertz spectroscopy. The paper is ...

Though its greatest appeal may be its flavor, honeydew melon is also nutritious and may provide several benefits. Here are 10 surprising benefits of honeydew melon.

Herein, we propose sodiophilic gel polymer electrolytes with a porosity-gradient Janus structure to alleviate Na dendrite growth. Tethering only 1.1 mol % sodiophilic poly (ethylene glycol) to poly ...
