A new study suggests that the gut may play a surprising role in childhood migraine. Researchers found that improving gut health could help reduce headache pain and frequency in some children.

Exercise restores a key cellular balance in ageing muscles, helping them stay stronger and more resilient.

Burkitt's lymphoma is a highly aggressive blood cancer that primarily affects children and young adults. It is driven by a genetic alteration involving the MYC gene. Researchers have now developed a novel treatment approach in mice that combines CAR-T cell therapy with limited doses of a SUMOylation inhibitor, which can target MYC. This combination dramatically improved cure rates, paving the way for a potential new treatment strategy for this aggressive cancer.

Scientists at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation. Their study, published in Nature Communications, reveals that the enzyme CaMKII forms mixed α/β subunit structures whose interactions stabilize learning-related signals in neurons.

A research team led by Hiroshima University and Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology have proposed a neuroendocrine mechanism in bony fish that signals ovulation from the ovaries to the brain, using the medaka fish as a model; the first step to elucidate the neural circuits for facilitation of sexual receptivity in female teleosts.

Researchers at The University of Osaka used a range of cellular techniques to show that the histone protein CENP-A can be deposited into centromeres by two independent pathways. By identifying that CENP-C can substitute for Mis18C in binding to the chaperone HJURP to prompt CENP-A deposition, they showed that there is redundancy in the process of specifying the location of the centromere on chromosomes, which is essential for mitosis and meiosis.
