Potassium ion homeostasis modulates mitochondrial function

Age-associated decline in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) is a ubiquitous aspect of eukaryotic organisms and is associated with many aging-related diseases. However, it is not clear whether this decline is a cause or consequence of aging, and therefore whether interventions to reduce MMP decline are a viable strategy to promote healthier aging and longer lifespans.

The green passion pay gap

Professionals working in Britain’s environmental sector remain passionate and committed – but are being underpaid and under-supported, according to insights from the 2025 National Environmental Services Survey. And this exploitation is slowing progress towards net zero.  The major nationwide survey, conducted by Environmental Services & Solutions (ESS) Expo in collaboration with Groundwork and the Environmental Services Association (ESA), gathered views from more […]

Scientists “resurrect” ancient cannabis enzymes with medical promise

Where did cannabis compounds like THC, CBD, and CBC come from? Scientists at Wageningen University & Research have now provided the first experimental proof showing how cannabis developed the ability to make these well-known cannabinoids. Along the way, the team also created enzymes that could be useful for producing cannabinoids through biotechnology, especially for medical […]

Pharmacovigilance Awareness Among Saudi Healthcare Students

In a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, the emphasis on patient safety has never been more crucial. Recent research conducted by Alsheikh, Alghamdi, Althobaiti, and their colleagues sheds light on a particularly vital aspect of healthcare: the awareness and engagement of healthcare professional students concerning pharmacovigilance and adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting. This study was undertaken […]

It’s Been One Year Since Wildfires Devastated Los Angeles. What Have We Learned? – State of the Planet

Aftermath of the Altadena fire. Photo: Ralph Allison Loar The wildfires that ravaged Los Angeles a year ago were among the worst in California’s history. They were exacerbated by persistent drought, a buildup of vegetation and Santa Ana winds which, at times, exceeded 80 mph. The most damaging fires, which reduced Altadena and Pacific Palisades to ashes, […]

When the oceans died and life changed forever

Around 445 million years ago, Earth underwent a dramatic transformation that reshaped the future of life. In a remarkably short geological period, massive glaciers spread across the southern supercontinent Gondwana. As ice locked up water, vast shallow seas dried out, triggering an “icehouse climate” and radically altering ocean chemistry. The result was catastrophic. Roughly 85% […]

Exploring PDR Gene Family and miRNAs in Wheat

In a groundbreaking study that promises to shed light on the intricate genetic adaptations of wheat, researchers have conducted a genome-wide analysis of the pleiotropic drug resistance (PDR) gene family. This pioneering research, spearheaded by a team of scientists including M.S. Kesawat, B.S. Kherawat, and M.L. Reager, aims to uncover the multifaceted roles these genes […]

Decoding the perfect steak: The hidden DNA behind Wagyu’s legendary marbling

Scientists at the University of Adelaide’s Davies Livestock Research Centre (DLRC) have unveiled the most comprehensive cattle genome ever assembled, a breakthrough expected to improve Wagyu breeding and enhance beef marbling. The research delivers a clearer picture of cattle genetics than any previous reference. “We have presented a near complete cattle genome that is 16 […]
