Biological clocks are ticking everywhere throughout our body, and a ‘master clock’ in the brain synchronizes all the subsidiary ones in various organs. Medical researchers have now found that such a circadian clock is at work in our muscles. Their research shows that perturbations of this machinery might be important for type 2 diabetes development.
Traditional Chinese medicine is widely used as a form of complementary medicine all over the world for various indications and for improving general health. Various reports have documented the adulteration of pCMs and health products with undeclared agents, including prescription drugs, drug analogues, and banned drugs. Such adulation can have serious and even fatal consequences.
Scientists have developed and demonstrated a promising new strategy for the discovery of novel anti-cancer therapies.
A new molecular pathway that is required for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) development has been identified by a team of researchers for the first time. This work could provide a rationale for targeting the RNA methylation program in myeloid leukemia.
Magnetic resonance imaging appears to be safe for patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices, even for chest imaging, according to a new study.
Genes which determine animal complexity – or what makes humans so much more complex than a fruit fly or a sea urchin – have been identified for the first time.
A research team has made major breakthrough in unveiling the mysteries of the brain to reveal functions of an important region, hippocampus, not known to scientists before.
