Long-term GLP-1 exposure drives phosphorylation of a key protein, resulting in massive changes in gene expression and partial reprogramming of pancreatic beta cells.

Princeton student Rishika Porandla self-retracted a paper due to methodological errors. She now says the results represent “hypothesized effects,” not actual ones.

Researchers found that cockroach milk proteins boast more than triple the energy content of dairy milk, winning the 2026 Ig Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

By searching across 2.5 million people, researchers identified variants strongly associated with fibromyalgia, giving clues for unraveling the disease’s mechanisms. 

Explore how emerging biomarker research and ultrasensitive multiplex proteomics are revealing molecular signatures associated with neurodegeneration, inflammation, and disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Explore practical strategies for designing, optimizing, and validating qPCR assays to improve specificity, reproducibility, and confidence across routine and high-throughput gene expression studies.
