Midlife Brain Aging Linked to Immune Cell Remodeling, Blood-Brain Barrier Decline

An analysis of aging human brains revealed widespread immune remodeling, blood-brain barrier deterioration, and genome architecture changes, challenging long-held assumptions about how the brain's resident immune cells are maintained.

Turning Solar Power Into Protein

Solar energy generates electricity to produce hydrogen, which combines with carbon dioxide to make methanol. Specialized enzymes then convert methanol into specific amino acids, depending on the enzyme combination used.

Autism-Like Traits in Mice Improved After Single Rapamycin Dose

The results of a mouse study suggest that inflammation during pregnancy can trigger autism-like brain and behavior changes in offspring, and that the effects may be rapidly but temporarily reversible in adulthood with a dose of the immunosuppressive drug rapamycin.

Single-Cell Maps Reveal Genome Reorganization in Alzheimer’s Brain Cells

Using single-cell multiomics, spatial transcriptomics, and an AI model called Hicformer, the team generated a multiscale view connecting genome structure, gene regulation, and tissue organization in Alzheimer’s disease.

Single-Cell Atlas Simultaneously Maps 3D Genome Architecture and DNA Methylation

Atlases like this one can provide the labeled, cell-type-resolved training data that artificial intelligence models need to make accurate predictions—a bottleneck that has historically limited the field.

Oral Antiviral Blocks Measles-Like Virus Transmission in Ferrets

An oral antiviral candidate prevented airborne and contact transmission of a measles-like virus in ferrets, reduced disease severity and infectious duration, and could complement vaccination strategies to help control future measles outbreaks.

Colorectal Cancer Targeted with Mass-Produced iPSC-Derived Allogeneic T Cells

Researchers generated off-the-shelf, mass-producible iPSC-derived allogeneic γδT cells that in a small preclinical study suppressed tumor growth in mouse colorectal cancer xenograft models, highlighting the cells’ potential as a novel immunotherapy for colorectal cancer.

Autolomous and Cellular Origins Expand Cell Therapy Manufacturing Process

The combined solution using Constellation and autoloMATE overcomes fragmentation, limited visibility, and the absence of standardized, interoperable data flows without replacing existing processes, enabling manufacturers to scale to commercially viable levels.

See, Blind Mice: Consortium’s Drugs Restore Sight

Researchers developed a series of light-activated small molecule drugs that mimic the function of the light-sensing photoreceptor cells that degenerate in diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa, and which in tests restored sight in blind mice.

AI-Designed Synthetic CRISPR-Like Nucleases Show Activity in Cells

Scientists used artificial intelligence to design CRISPR nucleases with properties not found in nature, achieving activity that matches or exceeds natural enzymes despite the proteins' complex, multi-domain structure.
