Innovative Cross-Species Transplantation: Creating Rat Offspring from Ovarian Oocytes

Attempts to obtain eggs and offspring using oocytes in ovary have been made for keeping desirable traits in livestock, preserving human fertility, etc. Ovarian transplantation, one of those methods, has been established and widely used. Although transplantation to different species is expected to bring benefits, it is still too difficult to produce offspring. Researchers have

Unlocking the Genetic Code: The Secret to Parrot Color Diversity Revealed

From the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro to the shoulders of pirates: parrots are synonymous with color for people across the world. In a new study, scientists uncover a 'switch' in the DNA of parrots that controls their wide gamut of colors. From the Carnival in Rio de Janeiro to the shoulders of pirates: parrots

Unveiling the Hidden Metabolism of Ethane-Consuming Archaea: A Breath of Discovery

admin -
Scientists characterize novel enzymes from deep-sea microbes with a key function in the ethane degradation process, revealing surprises in the metabolism of these organisms. Seeps on the deep seafloor naturally emit alkanes, which are pollutants that are potentially dangerous to life and act on global warming. Fortunately, the sediments around the seeps host microbes that

“Ancient Mechanisms: How ‘Paleo-Robots’ Illuminate the Evolution of Fish to Land Dwellers”

admin -
The transition from water to land is one of the most significant events in the history of life on Earth. Now, a team of roboticists, palaeontologists and biologists is using robots to study how the ancestors of modern land animals transitioned from swimming to walking, about 390 million years ago. The transition from water to

Tuning Into Coral: Using Reef Sounds to Nurture New Coral Larvae Growth

admin -
Healthy coral reefs echo with a chorus of grunts and purrs from fish feeding, looking for mates, or defending their territories, underscored by the persistent crackling of snapping shrimp. Larval corals use these sounds as cues to decide where to choose a home. The researchers found that now a second species of coral larvae responded

Thieving Inspired: Newly Identified Wasps Carry Names of Iconic Crooks

admin -
Twenty-two new species of gall wasps have been identified and named, thanks to new research. The study nearly doubles the number of known species in this genus of wasps. Twenty-two new species of gall wasps have been identified and named for the first time, thanks to new research led by a Penn State College of

The Intricate Geometry Behind a Dog’s Nose

admin -
The noses of many mammals, such as dogs, ferrets and cows, feature grooves forming a multitude of polygons. A team has analyzed in detail how these patterns form in the embryo using 3D imaging techniques and computer simulations. The researchers discovered that differential growth of the skin tissue layers leads to the formation of domes

Revolutionary Tool Accelerates Understanding of Algal Gene Expression Language

New research has revealed a connection between ancient viral DNA embedded in the human genome and the genetic risk for two major diseases that affect the central nervous system. New research from King's College London has revealed a connection between ancient viral DNA embedded in the human genome and the genetic risk for two major

Unraveling the Mystery: How Our Gut Cells Identify Threatening Intruders

admin -
Researchers have discovered that GPR31, found in certain immune cells in the human gut, plays a key role in responding to bacterial metabolites and activating immune responses. Specifically, in the presence of metabolite pyruvate, these cells extend dendrites to sample the gut environment, detect pathogens, and activate T cells through GPR31. This discovery could inform

New Study Reveals Aquaculture’s Hidden Dependence on Wild Fish Stocks

A study suggests that global fish farming, or aquaculture, may rely on significantly larger quantities of wild-caught ocean fish than previously calculated. The study is part of a special issue focused on expanding contributions from the aquaculture industry to food systems with an aim towards sustainability. A study published in the journal Science Advances suggests

Paw Perils: Polar Bears Facing Ice Injuries in a Warming Arctic
