Researchers engineered mini liver tumours co-cultured with endothelial cells to investigate their crosstalk. The team found that endothelial cells promote the production of CXCL1, a protein associated with poor survival outcome in liver cancer patients.
A team of Australian scientists has analyzed rare earth elements in drilled reef cores to unveil a deep history of wild weather on the Great Barrier Reef. The study reveals that extreme runoff from intense monsoons affected water quality over 8,000 years ago, leading to reduced coral growth and reef decline.
A new study reveals climate change is causing winter storms to intensify faster than predicted, with implications for societies in the Southern Hemisphere. The research suggests that human activity may have a greater impact on this region than previously estimated, requiring rapid intervention to halt climate damage.
Researchers discovered that blood vessels forming from lymphatic vessels were found to be suited for specific functions. In transgenic zebrafish, they found that fins develop with lymphatic-derived blood vessels, which are perfectly suited for fin development.
