The association between local wake slow waves (LoWS) and cognitive processing.

Researchers investigated the genetic underpinning of asthenozoospermia, the leading cause of male fertility.

The electrical potential across the bacterial cell envelope indicates when bacteria no longer operate as individual cells but as a collective.

Scientists in aging research today report a novel experimental approach that slowed the rate of physical decline and lengthened the lives of roundworms commonly used in biological studies, C. elgans.

Biochar-based compound fertilisers (BCF) are gaining increasing attention as they are cost-effectiveness and improve soil fertility and crop yield. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which micron-size BCF particles enhance crop growth. In the present study, Wuyunjing7 rice seedlings were exposed to micron-size particles of wheat straw-based BCF (mBCF) diffused through a 25-μm nylon mesh. The control was fertilised with urea, diammonium phosphate, and potassium chloride to ensure t...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have shown that a mixture of 5-aminolevulinic acid(5-ALA) hydrochloride and sodium ferrous citrate (SFC) helps slow down aging-related muscular decline in fruit flies, leading to a slower decline in locomotor activity and longer lifespans.

Two polymeric nanocarriers were tested for the co-delivery of sorafenib tosylate and gold nanoparticles against HepG2 cells. Click to read more.

Controlling signal transmission and reception within the brain circuits is necessary for neuroscientists to achieve a better understanding of the brain's functions.
