Recent progress on Alzheimer’s disease shows what we gain when scientists work together — and what the world loses when bad policies force them apart.

A new study led by the Spanish National Centre for Cardiovascular Research (CNIC) and funded by the European Reasearch Council (ERC) has identified imidazole propionate (ImP), a metabolite produced by...

Imidazole propionate produced by gut microbiota is associated with atherosclerosis in mouse models and in humans, and causes the development of atherosclerosis through activation of the imidazoline-1 ...

An atlas mapping organ-specific metabolite production and consumption across various pathophysiological states in pigs shows impaired metabolic activity across organs by a Western diet or hypercholest...

This study presents a diagnostic pen with ferrofluid ink that converts handwriting into sensing signals for Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnostics. In pilot studies, neural network-assisted analysis of collected handwriting signals accurately distinguished patients with PD, demonstrating the pen's potential as a low-cost, scalable tool for accessible diagnostics.

Some cancer cells exhibit high loads of reactive iron in lysosomes, and this feature is exploited by using fentomycin-1, a newly developed small molecule, to induce ferroptosis.
