Study finds an autism-related genetic mutation increases splicing errors and induces endoplasmic reticulum stress by activating the unfolded protein response.
Study reveals a new mechanism that appears to reverse the build-up of protein aggregates by refolding them, rather than removing them.
A novel protein folding mechanism in the endoplasmic reticulum is essential for long-term memory storage. This mechanism is impaired in tau-models of Alzheimer's disease, but restoring the protein folding mechanism reverses memory impairment associated with dementia.
Loperamide, an anti-diarrhea medication, induces autophagy in glioblastoma brain cancer cells.
Study shows how circadian clock mechanisms boost our ability to maintain our bodies when we are most active.
Researchers have developed a protein sensor which allows for the observation of nicotine's movement in cells.
Researchers say the sight and smell of food alone may be enough to prompt the liver to start the processes that help digest food.
According to researchers, neurons generated from super obese people are more likely to dysregulate hormones related to hunger and feeding behaviors.
Researchers have generated motor neurons from people with familial ALS who carry FUS mutations.
Researchers have discovered a new cellular mechanism that may be a root cause of multiple sclerosis.
Researchers identify a new cellular mechanism that may be responsible for multiple sclerosis. Findings could open up new avenues for the development of treatments.
Researchers have identified a novel type of cell death associated with Huntington's disease.
