Optimizing gold nanoparticles for better medical imaging, drug delivery, and cancer therapy

Optimizing gold nanoparticles for better medical imaging, drug delivery, and cancer therapy

Health care professionals use tiny particles of gold (nanoparticles) for a variety of medical applications—from diagnostic imaging to cancer treatment. Gold works well for these applications because it doesn't cause adverse reactions inside the body, it doesn't break down easily, and it's easy to see on imaging tests.

2.1 kids per woman might not be enough for population survival, new research reveals

2.1 kids per woman might not be enough for population survival, new research reveals

Human populations need at least 2.7 children per woman—a much higher fertility rate than previously believed—to reliably avoid long-term extinction, according to a new study published in the open-access journal PLOS One by Takuya Okabe of Shizuoka University, Japan, and colleagues.

'Explainable' AI cracks secret language of sticky proteins

'Explainable' AI cracks secret language of sticky proteins

An AI tool has made a step forward in translating the language proteins use to dictate whether they form sticky clumps similar to those linked to Alzheimer's disease and around fifty other types of human disease. In a departure from typical "black-box" AI models, the new tool, CANYA, was designed to be able to explain its decisions, revealing the specific chemical patterns that drive or prevent harmful protein folding.

Using bacteria as living test tubes to study human gene mutations and find new drug leads

Using bacteria as living test tubes to study human gene mutations and find new drug leads

Traditional biochemical methods of studying human gene mutations are often laborious and costly. Now bioengineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new simple approach to rapidly check on human gene changes and also screen chemicals as potential drugs by turning everyday bacteria into living test tubes.

Global effort maps microplastics' path through critical ocean systems

Global effort maps microplastics' path through critical ocean systems

Marine plastic pollution is a global crisis, with 9 to 14 million metric tons of plastic entering the ocean every year. Tiny fragments called microplastics—ranging from 1 micron to 5 millimeters—make up the vast majority of plastic pieces found and pose serious risks to ocean health.

Tiny tweaks to microRNAs uncover big insights into gene control

Tiny tweaks to microRNAs uncover big insights into gene control

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet and Uppsala University have developed a powerful new technique to better understand how tiny molecules in our cells, called microRNAs, control which genes are turned on or off—a discovery that could improve how we study diseases from cancer to neurodevelopmental disorders.
