A research team at CiQUS (University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain) has unveiled an innovative molecular approach that enables anticancer drugs to reach the nucleus of tumor cells, where they can exert their therapeutic effect. The study focused on doxorubicin, a widely used chemotherapy agent. Prolonged exposure to this drug often leads to the emergence of resistant cells, a major clinical challenge that this strategy successfully overcomes while preserving the drug's antitumor activity.

This video explores how COVID-19 infection alters the oral and gut microbiota and how these microbial changes correlate with SARS-CoV-2 viral load during hospitalization. The study provides deep insight into the microbial dysbiosis observed in infected patients and its potential impact on disease severity, immune response, and recovery. By linking oral–gut microbial networks with viral persistence, this research opens new perspectives for microbiome-based diagnostics and therapeutic interventions in infectious diseases.

Inside nearly every cell of your body, the tiny F1 motor works non-stop to create adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal energy source that powers almost every action you take—from breathing to running. While scientists have understood the structure of this molecular machine for years, a key mystery remained: how does its partner, the F0 motor, spin F1 with maximum efficiency?

The risk of developing long-term symptoms after a COVID-19 infection has dropped sharply in the Netherlands, according to new research by the RIVM. The study shows that people infected with SARS-CoV-2 in 2023 were no more likely to report persistent health problems than people who never caught the...

A cell can act in astonishingly complex ways. It must decide for itself whether to grow and multiply, rest, specialize, age or die. This applies just as much to mammalian cells as it does to seemingly simple microbes.

Despite rapid advances in reading the genetic code of living organisms, scientists still face a major challenge today—knowing a gene's sequence does not automatically reveal what it does. Even in simple, well-studied bacteria like Escherichia coli (better known as E. coli), about one-quarter of the genes have no known function. Traditional approaches—turning off one gene at a time and studying the effects—are slow, laborious, and sometimes inconclusive due to gene redundancy.
