How Gut Rewires the Brain to Crave for Essential Nutrients- Newly discovered neural and hormonal pathways help animals seek the nutrients they are missing -Eating is not only about getting enough calories. Animals also need to choose the right nutrients. When the body lacks protein, it must seek essential amino acids — the protein building blocks that cannot be made internally ...

Strong Genetic Mutation Overrides Female Protective Effects in Autism- Researchers develop the world’s first viable homozygous CHD8 autism mouse model, revealing how mutation severity reshapes sex differences in autism -Autism spectrum disorder affects males far more frequently than females, with diagnoses occurring roughly four times more often in boys. Scientists have long su... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 649 2026.05.20

Machine Learning Proves that Graphene is Hydrophobic- Machine-learning–enhanced simulations show that pristine graphene is intrinsically hydrophobic and not “wetting transparent” -For more than a decade, a fundamental mystery has surrounded graphene—the one-atom-thick “wonder material” known for its exceptional strength, conductivity, and transparency. Despite its seemingly sim... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 1266 2026.05.12

Scientists Reveal How Cells “Back Up” DNA Replication to Survive Severe Damage- DNA helicase HELQ promotes replication fork reversal, protecting cells from toxic DNA crosslinks -Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by DNA damage. Among the most dangerous lesions are DNA interstrand crosslinks (IC... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 1678 2026.05.07

Scientists Discover a New Way to Make Drug-Resistant Cancer Treatable Again- Destabilizing DNA repair proteins restores tumor sensitivity to PARP inhibitor therapy -Cancer cells survive by repairing damage to their DNA—even damage that would normally be fatal. One of their most important defense systems is homologous recombination, a high-precision repair pathway that fixes bro... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 1691 2026.04.30

New Experimental Drug May Restore Movement After Stroke- Blocking collagen production after stroke prevents neuronal cell death, full recovery observed in paralyzed monkeys -Every stroke begins with a sudden interruption of blood flow in the brain. But what happens afterward—why neurons continue to lose function and die over the following days—has remained one of the most impor... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 2215 2026.04.28

Scientists Engineer a Tool to “Edit” Brain Circuits and Enhance Memory- A new molecular tool called SynTrogo harnesses astrocytes to selectively dismantle synaptic connections -Every thought, memory, and feeling we experience depends on trillions of tiny connection points in the brain called synapses. These are the junctions where one neuron passes signals to another, forming t... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 3124 2026.04.15

Bright Quantum Light Emission Achieved at Room Temperature in 2D Semiconductors- Nanohole-induced confinement and charge neutralization deliver bright, stable quantum emission without electrical gating -A joint research team led by Professor PARK Kyoung-Duck and Associate Director SUH Yung Doug of the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials within the Institute for Basic S...

The Brain’s Ability to Grasp the “Gist” of a Visual Scene Begins Earlier Than Expected- Researchers show that primary visual cortex encodes motion summaries and variability before higher brain regions transform them into category signals -When animals move through complex visual environments, the brain cannot afford to analyze every detail one by one. Instead, it rapidly extrac... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 4421 2026.03.25

Astrocytes Shape Motor Coordination Development in Late Adolescence- Switch from neuron-derived to astrocyte-derived tonic inhibition reshapes cerebellar information processing late in adolescence -A new study reveals that astrocytes—star-shaped support cells traditionally viewed as passive partners of neurons—play a previously underappreciated role in the maturation of coordin...
