While there is yet little understood about autoimmune diseases, a Yale University research team has managed to extend our insight a little further. Through experimentation with samples of mice, the team was able to demonstrate how the gut bacteria Enterococcus gallinarum could be translocated into other organs including the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes.

Despite some debates, it is generally accepted that the human hippocampus generates new neurons even in adulthood. Yet, research led by Dr. Arturo Alvarez-Buylla and his team from University of California, San Francisco discovered evidence that neurogenesis in the human hippocampus drops drastically as age progresses.

A group of South Korean scientists from Yonsei University has made a breakthrough in the treatment of hair loss. Previous treatments that control the speed of hair growth have had limited effects on hair loss that has already progressed and caused side effects due to the suppression of male hormones. Hence, there was an evident need for a new approach to treating hair loss.

At a distance from the Sun around 40 times farther than the Earth, the dwarf planet Pluto is certainly cold. However, its atmospheric temperature of 70 K is 30 K lower than it theoretically should be. Now, a team at the University of California, Santa Cruz has offered an explanation for the mismatch.

Mono Lake in California is an inhospitable place for most marine life, due to its hyper-salinity and high concentrations of the alkaline substances sodium carbonate and borax. However, the species of fly Ephydra hians have long been seen diving under the surface, feeding and laying eggs. Caltech researchers published their recent discovery, revealing how this is possible in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
