(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this case series, nonoptimal temperatures were critical environmental contributors associated with mortality burden, with differential vulnerability by geographic location, cause of death, and demographic factors. These findings highlight the need for urgent actions against temperature-related health burdens through tailored climate and public health strategies, considering the local context and demographic profiles.

Research hints at the potential of pain relief with CBD
2025-11-07
Reaching for CBD-infused lotion or oil may seem like a low-risk way to find pain relief, but little is actually known about the impact that CBD has on the nervous system.
Over the past decade, the use of cannabis products for pain management has increased, in part because in 2018 Congress signed a law removing hemp from the federal Controlled Substances Act, thereby legalizing hemp-derived CBD. Today, it is most commonly found in oil form, as well as in lotions and cosmetics, and it is widely understood that CBD does not cause a ‘high’. However, what CBD does in the human body and brain is not well understood. Currently, the Food and Drug Administration ...
Dr. Johnson V. John appointed as a Standing Member of the NIH Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering (MTE) Study Section
2025-11-07
Los Angeles, CA – November 7, 2025 - The Terasaki Institute proudly announces that Johnson V. John, Ph.D., Assistant Professor at the Institute, has been appointed as a standing member of the Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering (MTE) Study Section within the Center for Scientific Review at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). His four-year term is scheduled to begin in November 2025.
The MTE Study Section plays a central role in the NIH’s rigorous peer-review process, evaluating competitive research proposals focused on biomaterials, cellular and molecular strategies, and engineering approaches that drive ...
TCF/LEF transcription factors emerge as druggable targets in Wnt signaling, offering new hope for fibrosis and cancer therapies
2025-11-07
Researchers have unveiled the intricate molecular mechanisms governing TCF/LEF-mediated transcription in the canonical Wnt pathway, identifying these proteins as promising therapeutic targets for cancer and fibrotic diseases. The review, published in Current Molecular Pharmacology, systematically dissects how four mammalian TCF/LEF paralogs—TCF7, LEF1, TCF7L1, and TCF7L2—achieve functional specificity through modular domain architecture and extensive alternative splicing.
"TCF/LEF proteins function as the final integrators of Wnt signals, converting β-catenin ...
New alloy design could power solid-state batteries that charge faster and last longer
2025-11-07
A team co-led by engineers at the University of California San Diego has developed a new design strategy for metal alloy negative electrodes that could significantly improve the performance and durability of next-generation solid-state batteries. The work could help advance the path toward practical, high-performance energy storage for electric vehicles.
The team focused on negative electrodes made of lithium-aluminum alloy. They studied how lithium ions move through different phases of the material — a lithium-rich “beta” phase and ...
Discovery to display: FAU unveils the ‘Art of Science’ winners
2025-11-07
Science isn’t just a pursuit of knowledge – it’s a canvas of creativity where data, design and exploration converge to reveal the unexpected beauty woven into the very fabric of discovery. Each year, Florida Atlantic University’s Division of Research celebrates creativity with its “Art of Science” contest as research transcends the lab and field to become stunning works of visual expression.
The competition invites FAU faculty, students and staff to showcase their research through photography and video, strengthening connections between science, art and the broader community. The Art of Science competition also highlights ...
Achieving electrocatalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction based on Ruddlesden-Popper type cathode catalyst for solid oxide fuel cells
2025-11-07
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are a new type of fuel cell that directly converts chemical energy into electrical energy and have attracted widespread attention in recent years. However, the slow oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the cathode is one of the main factors limiting the electrochemical performance of SOFCs.
Ruddlesden-Popper (R-P) oxides have been extensively studied as cathode materials for SOFCs due to their high oxygen mobility and relatively good electrocatalytic activity. Their unique layered structure, characterized by alternating rock-salt layers and perovskite layers, allows them to maintain a large oxygen non-stoichiometry. ...
Ceramic-based electromagnetic interference shielding materials: mechanisms, optimization strategies, and pathways to next-generation applications
2025-11-07
With the rapid advancement of wireless communication technologies and electronic devices, electromagnetic interference (EMI) has emerged as a critical factor affecting the reliability and performance of electronic systems, particularly in high-demand sectors such as aerospace, defense, and next-generation communication networks. Traditional EMI shielding materials, including metal and carbon-based composites, are inherently limited, such as high weight, susceptibility to corrosion and insufficient ...
NIH-funded exploratory study to seek possible targets for treating alcohol use disorder
2025-11-07
Alcohol use disorder (AUD), characterized by uncontrollable alcohol consumption due to physical and psychological dependence, affects approximately 14.1 million people in the U.S. Despite the related public health issues and associated economic costs — an estimated $249 billion annually — pharmacological treatment options for AUD have advanced only minimally since 2004. This underscores the urgent need for novel therapeutic targets.
In an effort to uncover some of these potential targets, the ...
Hanyang University researchers develop of novel high-resolution mechanoluminescent platform technology
2025-11-07
Mechanoluminescent (ML) materials are attractive for haptic interface sensors for next-generation technologies, including bite-controlled user interface, healthcare motion monitoring, and piconewton sensing, because they emit light under mechanical stimulation without an external power source. However, their intrinsically broad emission spectra can degrade resolution and introduce noise in sensing applications, necessitating further technological development.
Addressing this knowledge gap, a team of researchers from the Republic of Korea and the UK, led by Hyosung Choi, a Professor ...
Hidden HPV-linked cell type may drive early cervical cancer, scientists report
2025-11-07
Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC), the most prevalent subtype of cervical cancer, remains a major global health burden driven primarily by persistent high-risk HPV infection and genetic susceptibility.
A research team led by Professor Ruozheng Wang, along with Mr. Peiwen Fan, Mr. Danning Dong, Dr. Yanning Feng and Dr. Xiaonan Zhu from the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) to delineate ...
