Controlling how oxygen reacts is important for improving technologies such as batteries, fuel cells and environmentally sustainable chemical processes. A research team led by professor Seung Jun Hwang from KAIST's Department of Chemistry has developed a molecular system capable o

Researchers from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) and Kiel University (CAU) have examined immune system function in an early-branching animal—a sea anemone. They discovered that the immune systems of these animals can selectively distinguish between different microorgan

They are the cell's "gatekeepers": specialized proteins, known as transporters, selectively control which substances enter a cell and which do not. Researchers at the University of Münster and the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens have investigated these transporters

Proteins regulate a wide range of biological processes inside and outside cells by binding to specific molecular partners. In recent years, short peptides that can selectively recognize disease-related proteins have attracted attention as compact molecular tools for biosensors, d

A substance that worsens dementia has become a "switch" that initiates treatment. KAIST researchers have developed a new therapeutic approach that uses hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), a reactive oxygen species that damages cells and increases in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's

Media stories, social media posts and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have asserted that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)—a class of medication commonly used to treat mental health conditions including depression and anxiety—may increase people'

Uterine fibroids and endometriosis are two of the most common gynecologic diseases, affecting 15% to 80% of women of childbearing age. Existing treatments—hormonal drugs and selective estrogen receptor modulators—have side effects and cannot reliably prevent recurrence. This is w

A new collaborative study reports the discovery and application of a novel therapeutic strategy to selectively target EGFR and other kinases with controlled release in tumor microenvironments to improve therapeutic efficacy, with promising results. The research is published in Bi
