Led by Associate Professor Nguyen Nam Long, from the Department of Biochemistry and Immunology Translational Research Programme (TRP) at NUS Medicine, the team found that Spns1 is like a cellular gatekeeper which can help to move a type of fat molecule called lysophospholipids to the lysosome, the cell's "recycling centre."
Foods that evoke a sense of nostalgia and comfort and have good texture variety are important considerations in prepared meals aimed at older adults, according to new Washington State University research.

Oct. 19, 2022 An international team of scientists who analyzed centuries-old DNA from victims and survivors of the Black Death pandemic has identified key genetic differences that determined who lived and who ...
Detailed in a new paper published in NEJM, a group led by researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania used an AI technique called machine learning to determine that adalimumab -- a monoclonal antibody which is FDA-approved to treat conditions ranging from arthritis to Crohn's disease -- was the "top-predicted" new treatment that was likely to work for iMCD.
"We found that UTIs, caused by bacterial infections such as E. coli, can significantly alter the function and sensitivity of the nerves that usually detect bladder fulness, a phenomenon known as 'bladder afferent hypersensitivity', says Dr Grundy, from the College of Medicine and Public Health.
Food scientists are working to make pancakes healthier by boosting the popular morning favorite's nutritional value while enhancing its taste and texture.
"Flexibly associating different behaviors with a given situation is a core competence of our brain," explains Alexander Gail, head of the Sensorimotor Research Group and the study.
