| Potential new CAR-T cell therapy for multiple myeloma Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:32 PM PDT Researchers are studying a potential new chimeric antigen receptor-T cell therapy (CAR-T cell therapy) treatment for multiple myeloma. |
| Differences in human, mouse brain cells have important implications for disease research Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:31 PM PDT A study comparing brain cells known as astrocytes in humans and mice found that mouse astrocytes are more resilient to oxidative stress, a damaging imbalance that is a mechanism behind many neurological disorders. |
| Sleeper cells: Newly discovered stem cell resting phase could put brain tumors to sleep Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:31 PM PDT Biomedical engineering researchers developed a new cell classifier tool that takes a higher-resolution look at the life cycle of neuroepithelial stem cells, which led to the discovery and exploration of a new resting phase called Neural G0. This knowledge could help scientists to better understand glioma brain tumors and develop new methods of treatment. |
| Optical tweezer technology tweaked to overcome dangers of heat Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:31 PM PDT Researchers have created a new version of optical tweezer technology that fixes a heating problem, a development that could open the already highly regarded tools to new types of research and simplify processes for using them today. |
| Unbroken: New soft electronics don't break, even when punctured Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:31 PM PDT A team of researchers has created a new type of soft electronics, paving the way for devices that are self-healing, reconfigurable, and recyclable. These skin-like circuits are soft and stretchy, sustain numerous damage events under load without losing electrical conductivity, and can be recycled to generate new circuits at the end of a product's life. |
| Scientists use NASA satellite data to track ocean microplastics from space Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:56 PM PDT Scientists have developed an innovative way to use NASA satellite data to track the movement of tiny pieces of plastic in the ocean. |
| More intense predation in the tropics can limit marine invasions Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:56 PM PDT Marine biologists tested predictions about biological invasions, first in Panama and then in an experiment of unprecedented geographic scale. |
| Engineered yeast could expand biofuels' reach Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:56 PM PDT Researchers found a way to reduce cellulosic feedstocks' toxicity to yeast, making it feasible to use these abundant feedstocks to produce ethanol, biodiesel, or bioplastics. |
| Nanotech OLED electrode liberates 20% more light, could slash display power consumption Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:56 PM PDT A new electrode that could free up 20% more light from organic light-emitting diodes has been developed. It could help extend the battery life of smartphones and laptops, or make next-gen televisions and displays much more energy efficient. |
| One 'ring' to rule them all: Curious interlocked molecules show dual response Posted: 25 Jun 2021 10:01 AM PDT Scientists design polymers infused with a stress-sensitive molecular unit that respond to external forces by switching on their fluorescence. The researchers demonstrate the fluorescence to be dependent on the magnitude of force and show that it is possible to detect both, reversible and irreversible polymer deformations, opening the door to the exploration of new force regimes in polymers. |
| Having the same nurse for home health visits may prevent rehospitalization for people with dementia Posted: 25 Jun 2021 09:04 AM PDT People with dementia receiving home health care visits are less likely to be readmitted to the hospital when there is consistency in nursing staff, according to a new study. |
