Life Sciences A cholesterol secret inside ticks may halt Lyme disease spread Washington State University researchers have discovered how the bacteria that cause anaplasmosis and Lyme disease hijack cellular processes in ticks to ensure their survival and spread to new hosts, including humans. Based in the College of Veterinary Medicine, the team found that the bacteria can manipulate a protein known as ATF6, which helps cells detect […] Written by Admin July 6, 2025July 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked

Balancing Risk With Opportunity – State of the Planet When we think of artificial intelligence (AI) and climate justice, we can imagine two stars in an orbital waltz; each with its own gravity, sometimes in harmony, while other times in tension. In moments of alignment, their fields reinforce each other, giving new vitality and perspective. Yet not all orbits are stable and the gravitational […] Written by Guest July 5, 2025July 5, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked

600-million-year-old body blueprint found in sea anemones A new study from the University of Vienna reveals that sea anemones use a molecular mechanism known from bilaterian animals to form their back-to-belly body axis. This mechanism (“BMP shuttling”) enables cells to organize themselves during development by interpreting signaling gradients. The findings, published in Science Advances, suggest that this system evolved much earlier than […] Written by Admin July 5, 2025July 5, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
