Fungi are best known for returning dead, organic matter to the Earth, but materials scientists are exploring whether they could someday help our bodies repair, in the form of special hydrogels. To play a role in biomedical settings, a hydrogel needs a multilayered structure like our own skin, cartilage and muscles. While some engineers are working on synthetic versions that …

He’s not here for her prayers. Justin Bieber took a swipe at his mom weeks after she prayed for his “healing” in a social media post.

Long-term heavy drinking can seriously damage your liver, but new research is shedding light on why the liver sometimes can’t repair itself, even after someone quits alcohol. Scientists from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Duke University, and the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Chicago have uncovered crucial details about alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD)—insights that could lead to new treatments beyond liver transplants. …

Excessive alcohol consumption can disrupt the liver’s unique regenerative abilities by trapping cells in limbo between their functional and regenerative states, even after a patient stops drinking, researchers at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and collaborators at Duke University and the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Chicago describe in a new study. This in-between state is a result of inflammation disrupting how RNA …

When cells are injured, they can “vomit” their insides out to help them heal faster, according to a new study. While effective, the process could also be implicated in diseases like cancer. The discovery was made while scientists were investigating a recently discovered cellular process called paligenosis, where mature cells respond to injury by reverting to a younger-seeming progenitor state, …

Digestive issues such as bloating, gas, and indigestion are everyday concerns, and while medicines offer relief, natural remedies can often provide lasting support without side effects. Herbs and spices used for centuries in Indian kitchens are now being recognised by modern science for their gut-healing properties.
