Our researchers are combining steroids and a specially formulated diet to make a new type of glioblastoma treatment.

The choanoflagellate Choanoeca flexa forms motile and contractile cell monolayers purely clonally, purely aggregatively or through a combination of both processes depending on environmental conditions.

Acetate helps the female rodents form memories but is less effective in males.

Researchers have identified a natural compound from pomegranate leaves and branches that can directly dismantle the protein aggregates responsible for transthyretin amyloidosis.

Cisco warns CVE-2026–20127 (CVSS 10.0) in SD-WAN is exploited since 2023 to gain admin access; CISA adds it to KEV and mandates urgent fixes.

Google disrupts China-linked UNC2814 after 53 breaches in 42 countries using GRIDTIDE via Google Sheets API.

Claude Code flaws allow remote code execution and API key theft via untrusted repositories; three bugs fixed across 2025–2026 releases.

OpenClaw has sparked heavy Telegram and dark web chatter, but Flare’s data shows more research hype than mass exploitation. Flare explains how its telemetry found real supply-chain risk in the skills marketplace, yet limited signs of large-scale criminal operationalization.

Online now: This study shows that a key metabolic enzyme, PCK1, protects the liver from scarring by keeping fibrogenic cells in a quiescent state. When PCK1 is reduced, these cells undergo metabolic reprogramming characterized by increased glycolysis, become aberrantly activated, and promote liver fibrosis in mice.

Electromotility in mammalian outer hair cells (OHC) is the mechanism underlying cochlear amplification. It is brought about by the piezoelectric-like property of the membrane protein prestin (Slc26a5) that lies in the OHCs lateral plasma membrane. Prestin connects to an underlying cytoskeletal network of circumferential actin filaments that bridge longitudinal spectrin filaments. This network, in turn, lies between the plasma membrane and a closely apposed ER-like tubular array of subsurface cisternae (SSC).
