Eating protein at breakfast is one of the best ways to begin your morning. “Starting your day with protein helps balance blood sugar, curb mid-morning cravings, and keep you satisfied longer,” says Kaytee Hadley, MS, registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), IFMCP, functional medicine dietitian, and founder of Holistic Health and Wellness in Richmond, Virginia. “Protein also kick-starts muscle repair and maintenance, …

BindCraft design protocol The input and design settings for running the BindCraft pipeline are organized into user-friendly JSON files. To initiate design trajectories, a target PDB format structure needs to be specified, along with the desired minimum and maximum length of the binders, and the desired number of final filtered designs. A target hotspot can be specified as either individual …

If you struggle with finding snacks that keep you satisfied, then you may need to include more protein in your choices. Mini lesson: Protein is one of the macronutrients that your body needs in large amounts. Protein supplies amino acids that your body needs, for example, to repair muscle tissue, digest food, and perform many other bodily functions. In addition …

A groundbreaking study by UCSF researchers has pinpointed the protein FTL1 as a key contributor to age-related cognitive decline, particularly affecting the hippocampus. Elevated FTL1 levels in older mice correlated with diminished brain cell connections and impaired cognitive function. Remarkably, reducing FTL1 in aged mice reversed these effects, boosting memory and neural connections. Aging is often accompanied by a decline …

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital demonstrated for the first time that the protein midkine plays a preventative role against Alzheimer’s disease. Midkine is known to accumulate in Alzheimer’s disease patients. Now, researchers have connected it with amyloid beta, a protein that accumulates in the brain, causing assemblies that are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s. In work published on August …

A single protein was found to fuel brain aging, and shutting it down reversed memory loss. Credit: Shutterstock Researchers at UC San Francisco have uncovered a surprising culprit in brain aging: a protein called FTL1. In aging mice, too much of this protein weakened memory and disrupted neural connections. But when scientists blocked FTL1, the mice’s brains regained youthful function, …
