The active ingredient in the diabetes and weight-loss medications Wegovy and Ozempic is semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide receptor (GLP-1R) molecule that reduces appetite and aids in blood sugar regulation in type 2 diabetes.
Glycolysis is one of the most fundamental metabolic pathways found in nearly all living organisms. In glycolysis, a simple sugar (glucose) is broken down to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This process takes place in the cell cytoplasm and is the first step in both aerobic […]
What is Micro RNA or miRNA? Micro RNAs belong to small non-coding RNA molecules involved in the regulation of gene expression. These short RNA sequences, typically of around 20-25 nucleotides, have emerged as important regulators of biological processes, ranging from cell development to the development of disease, with much importance […]
Two distinct discoveries are recognised for the 2024 Chemistry Nobel Prize, yet as you shall see, they are closely related. We must go all the way back to the early days of modern biochemistry in order to comprehend the struggles that this year’s laureates have faced.
The discovery of a crucial regulatory mechanism that cells utilize to regulate gene activity is the main focus of this year’s Nobel Prize.
Brain lesions produced by major brain trauma or stroke can alter neuronal connections between the motor cortex, a critical brain area needed for coordinating voluntary movement, and the muscles.
The report states that vascular dementia is the second most frequent subtype of dementia after Alzheimer’s disease. Still, the two illnesses are different clinically.
Findings could inform artificial intelligence research by helping investigators determine how one could develop more distributed neural networks.
Researchers found that among all proteins, one protein-OSER1, greatly influences longevity.
