Sepsis, a complex syndrome driven by a dysregulated host response to infection, is closely linked to both metabolic and ...

Living cells pay a hidden energy price not just to run chemical reactions, but to keep them on track and block all the alternatives. A new thermodynamic framework makes it possible to calculate these ...

The TO_AITION project, completed this month (December 2025), has been investigating the biological causes of inflammation linking cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and depression, and has used a wide ...

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a metabolically dynamic niche where cancer cells and immune cells interact to influence tumor progression and immune ...

Solid tumors often provide a challenging environment for the T cells of our immune system. By reprogramming the metabolism of ...

There are "costs of life" that mechanical physics cannot calculate. A clear example is the energy required to keep specific biochemical processes active—such as those that make up photosynthesis, ...

McGill University researchers have identified a brain function that helps explain why childhood stress raises metabolic health risks for some women later in life. A new study found that variations in ...

Even after years of smoking, the body has a remarkable ability to repair itself. Now in a study appearing in ACS' Journal of Proteome Research, scientists report that certain metabolic changes occur ...
