The long-term stasis of blood in the liver, known as chronic liver congestion, can lead to a range of diseases, some of which ...

Crystalline polymers assembled inside tumor cell lysosomes rupture membranes, release iron, and trigger immune-activating ...

New research shows PFAS exposure is accelerating biological aging in men starting in their late thirties — far earlier than ...

Researchers from The University of Osaka find that chronic liver congestion is linked to severe liver diseases through a specific signaling pathway in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells - key cells ...

When myelin breaks down, white matter in the brain deteriorates, a change commonly seen with aging. At the same time, microglia, the brain’s primary immune cells, can shift from protective responders ...

Understanding the timeline of Alzheimer's degeneration can improve support for those affected, and researchers have now built ...

A protein called REST appears dramatically more active in the brains of people who stay cognitively sharp into their 80s and 90s, and its discovery is rewriting what scientists thought they knew about ...
