The University of Göttingen's research network is investigating the development of world order conceptions in China, Europe, and other regions. The team will examine cultural hegemonies, social movements, and global power arrangements.
Researchers developed a novel photodynamic therapy to target insulin-producing lesions, showing promise in slowing tumor growth and inducing cell death. The treatment could provide a minimally invasive option for hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, improving patient management.
A 3D modeling tool has been created to visualize the components of SARS-CoV-2, ranging from 10 to 100 nanometers in size. The model provides a detailed representation of the virus's structure, including its nucleocapsid proteins and RNA strand.
Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is underdiagnosed and characterized by multiple painful bone swellings. A new study identifies common features among CNO patients, including predominantly female sex, intermittent pain, and symmetric patterns of bone lesions. These findings can help clinicians improve diagnosis and treatment.
Researchers have identified a unique population of CD38hiCD127- CD8 T cells in patients with checkpoint inhibitor-induced arthritis, which are both cytotoxic and proliferating. This discovery could lead to the development of targeted treatments for this side effect.
Researchers from USTC and SIAT successfully observed individual GABAA receptors and their organization on the synaptic membrane using in situ cryo-electron tomography. The study revealed a 11-nm social distancing among receptors, forming a mesophasic assembly that regulates neurotransmitter release.
Researchers at USTC develop materials with a hierarchical structure similar to nacre, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties and thermal stability. The new materials outperform conventional plastics in terms of strength and toughness, making them a promising alternative for plastic replacement.
