Bless You: Mouse Model Reveals Molecular Pathway Behind Sneezing

Liquid conglomerations of molecules that form in bacterial cells in response to stress promote the cells’ survival, a study finds.

Researchers link the ability of the cells to bind and present DNA from pathogens and cell death to anemia, which is common in COVID-19, and immune activation.

The achievement bolsters hopes that nonhuman animals could be used to remedy the shortage of transplantable organs.

Male placentas produce more proinflammatory molecules than female placentas, while people carrying male fetuses produce fewer antibodies in response to infection, a study finds.

An analysis suggests that a commercially important mass migration of fish may have no real adaptive value.

A large genome-wide association study in East Asians uncovers novel genetic links to depression, calling attention to the consequences of underrepresentation of non-European groups in genetic research data.

Kyoto University is shuttering its Primate Research Institute after its director was dismissed for misuse of funding.

Offspring of animals subjected to a real or simulated pathogen were more able to fend off disease, a study finds.

Nearly three dozen of Mexico’s leading researchers are being accused of money laundering, embezzlement, and organized crime, a move other academics say is politically motivated.
