Protein sources appear to have major effects on both the population and function of the mouse gut microbiome.
Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move.
Scientists believe they know what causes the treated infection to mimic chronic illness: the body may be responding to remnants of the bacteria that causes Lyme...
A new study asked three questions about muscle protein synthesis in response to a nine-day diet and weight training regimen: First, does the source of protein...
There's a sensation that you experience -- near a plane taking off or a speaker bank at a concert -- from a sound so total that...
Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine (known as the gut microbiota) can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti-cancer immunity by blocking...
