At 10 one-millionths of a meter wide, a single human cell is tiny. But something even smaller exerts an enormous influence on ...

Scientists from the Human Protein Atlas created a pan-disease blood atlas that maps thousands of proteins across 59 diseases ...

New research has revealed how the tau protein, a critical element in the formation of Alzheimer's disease, is also involved in normal learning processes in the healthy brain -- potentially providing a ...

A research team from the University of Osaka, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has uncovered ...

New research supports the hypothesis that Alzheimer's disease is caused by a decline in levels of a protein called amyloid-beta. New research from the University of Cincinnati bolsters a hypothesis ...

Scientists can also make normal proteins change into twisted proteins in the lab — but so far they haven't been able to show that those proteins can cause infections, Chesebro said. Chesebro said he's ...

Targeted therapies specifically attach to and hinder cancer-causing proteins, but cancer cells can quickly evolve to thwart their action. A second drug class, immunotherapies, harnesses the immune ...

Four of the proteins identified as measurably decreased and validated by immunoblot analysis were two light harvesting complex binding proteins 1 and 3, Rubisco activase, and carbonic anhydrase. The ...

Urine tests measure specific substances in your urine, such as electrolytes, proteins, and bacteria. These tests can reveal a lot about your health, particularly when gradual changes or big jumps ...
