Scientists have discovered that some tiny segments of RNA thought to be junk instead have a functional role in suppressing production of certain messenger RNAs and appear to help cells respond to ...

A thermal stability-based proteomic analysis identifies cytoplasmic PEBP1 as a mediator of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced stress response, highlighting its potential role in cellular adaptation ...

This process prompts the up-regulation of certain stress response genes in the cell’s nucleus. Now, a team has found that roundworms that experienced mitochondrial stress pass on a “memory” of that ...

In a novel theory, scientists at Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute propose a unifying explanation for the ...

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. This study was aimed at exploring immune-related genes and their expression changes in myocardial ...

Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) and the Institute of Oceanology, both ...

URUMQI -- Chinese researchers have identified the molecular mechanisms behind the cold tolerance of Syntrichia caninervis, a ...

The study identified epigenetic changes in genes related to the regulation of cortisol, an essential hormone in the body's response to stress. This pilot study, funded by a CIBERSAM Intramural ...

Maternal stress could leave epigenetic imprints on genes in the placenta associated with cortisol -- a necessary hormone for fetal development -- and this would affect the baby's development from very ...
