Researchers at Umeå University have discovered that the microscopic "bubbles" released by bacteria in our body do not just ...

A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the deadly drug-resistant bacteria NDM-CRE found a 70% ...

The idea that a single-celled bacterium can defend itself against viruses in a similar way as the 1.8-trillion-cell human ...

To study pattern formation, researchers used a method called the landscape-flux framework — which can be extended to other ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have discovered that bacteria can drive stem cell regeneration to repair the intestinal lining after injury—uncovering an unexpected way in which the gut ...

Researchers have revealed how polymyxins, crucial last-resort antibiotics, break down bacterial armor by forcing cells to overproduce and shed it. Astonishingly, the drugs only kill bacteria when they ...

New research into antimicrobial peptides, small chains of amino acids able to damage bacterial cells, shows why some peptides are more effective at doing that and also why some cells are more ...

Stunning images reveal for the first time how antibiotics pierce deadly bacteria’s armor. British scientists have shown how life-saving drugs called polymyxins puncture the defenses of harmful bugs.

New studies show that a bacterial molecule, peptidoglycan, is present in the brain and fluctuates with sleep patterns. This challenges the idea that sleep is solely brain-driven, instead suggesting it ...

A protein emitted by a specific type of bacteria can cause cancer cells to self-destruct, potentially paving the way for new ...
