Immune Cells’ Role as Quality Control Boosts Tissue Health (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the primary functions of specialized white blood cells called macrophages is to fight off disease-causing pathogens. But they also live in organs like the heart that are not typically exposed to infection. A new Yale study shows why macrophages are important in this context and reveals how certain tissues regulate the number of macrophages they contain. Andres Hidalgo, PhD, professor of immunobiology, studies the physiological role of immune cells beyond preventing infection. Previous res
New Trial Aims to Halt Parkinson’s Disease Before Its Onset (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new clinical trial led by Yale School of Medicine's Jesse Cedarbaum, MD, professor of neurology, and David Hafler, MD, William S. and Lois Stiles Edgerly Professor of Neurology, is the first such study to test whether a drug can slow or prevent the onset of Parkinson’s disease in people at risk. The first warning signs of Parkinson’s disease can manifest decades before the onset of motor problems. One of these is a sleep condition in which individuals act out their dreams, often violently. Kno
Cancer Drug Reduces Atherosclerosis Inflammation and Plaque (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new Yale study has identified a promising therapeutic avenue for atherosclerosis, a condition caused by inflammation and plaque buildup in arteries. Martin Schwartz, PhD, Robert W. Berliner Professor of Medicine (Cardiology) and the study’s principal investigator, investigates how the mechanical forces from blood flow and pressure affect the cells lining the arteries and how cell responses to forces contribute to cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerosis predominantly impacts regions of the arte
How Hibernating Squirrels Retain Sense of Touch in the Cold (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you forget your gloves on a chilly winter’s day, your fingers soon become numb and stiff. For most mammals, cold suppresses neural activity and diminishes the sense of touch. But the thirteen-lined ground squirrel can detect touch in conditions as low as 4 degrees Celsius, or about as cold as the inside of a refrigerator, finds a new Yale study published in Current Biology. For many mammals, including humans, prolonged exposure to the cold can permanently damage nerves. But a team of Yale Sch
Yale Tool Links Molecule Clusters to Neurodevelopmental Disorders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When you add drops of oil to water, the oil and water remain separate. Within cells, biological molecules cluster together in a similar way, separating themselves from the rest of the cell. And while they don’t have a membrane, they are their own distinct compartments. In some cases, these clusters, known as biomolecular condensates, become dysfunctional and abnormally accumulate. These pathological condensates can lead to cell death and have been linked to neurodegenerative diseases including f
