A University of Minnesota-led multi-institutional research team has discovered a highly potent small molecule that blocks Ebola virus entry by stabilizing the virus's entry protein and provides strong protection when given orally in a preclinical model.

The human body is a marvel of remake and renewal. We regularly replace some of our estimated 37 trillion cells – about 300 billion or 1 percent of our cells each day - with healthy substitutes. We remove damaged or aging, senescent cells and cellular debris from our organs and tissues every second of the day. How important is it that cellular waste be properly removed?

Researchers at the Swammerdam Institute for Life Sciences (SILS) of the Faculty of Science have uncovered how mammary-gland cells decide when to activate Wnt4, a gene with a central role in mammary-gland development. Their findings reveal how distant stretches of non-coding DNA work together in three dimensions to control gene activity.

As it tries to defend itself from stroke, the brain can paradoxically trigger the formation of tiny new clots in minor blood vessels, damaging tissue even after the original culprit has been removed, new research shows. The findings help explain why nearly half of treated stroke patients don’t recover — and identify potential new treatments.

If you forget your gloves on a chilly winter’s day, your fingers soon become numb and stiff. For most mammals, cold suppresses neural activity and diminishes the sense of touch.
A new Yale study has identified a promising therapeutic avenue for atherosclerosis , a condition caused by inflammation and plaque buildup in arteries.
Yale School of Medicine (YSM) has been awarded a grant of nearly $25 million by the Aligning Research to Impact Autism (ARIA) initiative. The award, which is part of ARIA’s Human Developmental Neurobiology Research Hub , focuses on building foundational maps and models of the developing human brain and clarifying how and when autism diverges from typical development.
