Seeds, twigs, and insect parts found under two miles of ice confirm Greenland's ice sheet melted in the recent past, the first direct evidence that the center -- not just the edges -- of the two-mile-deep ice melted away in the recent geological past. The new research indicates that the giant ice sheet is more fragile than scientists had realized until the last few years -- and reveals increased risk of sea-level catastrophe in a warmer future.

Proinflammatory cytokines, elevated during inflammation caused by infection and/or autoimmune disorders, result in reduced clearance of drugs eliminated primarily by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). However, the effect of cytokines on hepatic drug transporter expression or activity has not been well-studied. Here, using plated human hepatocytes (PHHs; n=3 lots), we investigated the effect of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interferon- (IFN-), on the

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive and fatal lung disease that is caused or influenced by multiple factors. Historically, the available drugs and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved therapies for treating PAH were primarily vasodilators, designed to overcome the imbalance between vasoactive and vasodilator mediators and to restore endothelial cell function.

New findings on how sharks achieve drag reduction could inspire the design of riblets for more efficient aircraft and boats. In their investigation of great white shark denticles, researchers found that ridge height and spacing play crucial roles in drag reduction at different swimming speeds. Higher middle ridges aid sharks in efficient cruising at slower speeds, while the lower side ridges become more critical for drag reduction during high-speed hunting bursts.
