Future therapies to help people live healthy lives for longer could be developed from drugs that release tiny amounts of the gas hydrogen sulfide (H2S), new research has indicated.

The research team administered AP39 to some worms from birth, and to others after reaching adulthood. They found that this compound improved the integrity of mitochondria – the “power house” of cells, which produces our cells’ energy, and kept the worms’ muscles active and moving, even well into old age, and when given mid-way through their life-course. The research, published in PNAS, concludes that targeting H2S specifically to the energy-generating machinery of cells (mitochondria) ...

Now when can we get that original cast recording?

Berkeley Reps new Medak Center, which opens this fall, will also have extra rooms to share with other local arts companies.

American Conservatory Theater, Magic Theatre, TheatreWorks and Oregon Shakespeare Festival have all paused internship programs.

Share Led by scientists from the University of Nottingham and the University of Exeter, with hardware designed by Oxford-based Kayser Space, the research team aims to determine the causes of muscle changes during spaceflight and find ways to mitigate these biological changes. Spaceflight is an extreme environment that causes many negative changes to the body, with astronauts losing up to 40 percent of their muscle after six months in space. Based on these changes, spaceflight is regarded as an ...

Worms on a Mission to Research Muscle Loss in Space On Thursday, 3rd June, hundreds of tiny worms are being flown to the International Space Station (ISS) as part of an experiment to understand more about human muscle loss and how to prevent it. Funded by the UK Space Agency, a team of scientists led by scientists from Nottingham and Exeter University, with hardware designed by Oxford-based Kayser Space, aims to determine the c...
