Oxalate buildup triggers systemic inflammation and cardiac damage, study shows

People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a significantly increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease. They also suffer from chronic inflammation, the causes of which are still only partly understood. Oxalic acid (oxalate) has so far been known primarily for its role

Do your dreams have smells? New study on 'blind minds' reveals vast differences in imagina

It's common to think we all have similar experiences of life. But the more we learn about other people's hidden thoughts, the more evidence there is that this is untrue. For instance, not everyone has the same ability to have imagined sensations. Most people can visualize—they ca

The same sounds are mapped similarly in the human and mouse brain, study finds

While exploring the world around them, both humans and other animals continuously interpret information they pick up with their sight, hearing, touch and other senses. Neuroscience research suggests that the brain does not individually process every single sensory experience, but

Scientists improve the analgesic efficacy of morphine

Scientists at the Department of Cell Biology of the University of Malaga have taken a step forward in the search for more effective treatments for pain with a new study that advances efforts to mitigate the addictive effects of morphine—one of the main drugs used for this purpose

New insights into neuron–microglia interactions during brain aging

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have identified small nuclear fragments known as micronuclei while studying neurons in aged mice. They demonstrated that microglia—the brain's resident immune cells—take up these micronuclei, leading to changes in microglial morphology and

Researchers reveal immune mechanisms that drive development of rare allergic stomach disea

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed one of the first experimental models that faithfully reproduces eosinophilic gastritis (EoG), a rare but increasingly recognized allergic disease of the stomach. Using this model, they identified the immune pathways responsible fo

Can infants detect voices in noisy environments? New research says yes

In noisy environments, organisms differentiate sounds they want to detect from interfering noise to improve their perception of target sounds. This process is widely conserved across species, including birds, crocodiles, ferrets and human adults. But how early in life does this a

Raman imaging applied to cardiac tissue of Fabry disease model reveals molecular map of li

How are disease-relevant molecules distributed within tissue? What changes occur even before they become visible under the microscope? Questions such as these are crucial for early diagnosis and targeted treatment in many diseases. Researchers at the Leibniz-Institut für Analytis

There's one reason why so many cold and flu tablets don't actually work

You've got the sniffles, and your nose is running like a faucet. The tissues feel like sandpaper. Many Australians reach for cold and flu tablets, expecting them to "clear the sinuses" and get them through a cold. They often promise fast relief.
