Lipidomics Study Highlights Interaction of Aspirin with Omega-6 Fatty Acids to Lower Cholesterol Levels

A recent paper described how metabolism centered on the omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid is linked to the way the body deals with cholesterol, which is intimately related to the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.  More...

The green blood vessels running horizontally are partly composed of red/yellow cells, suggesting that fibroblasts are incorporated into blood vessels (Photo courtesy of UNC – University of North Carolina).

Boosting the Heart’s Natural Capacity to Recuperate After Heart Attack with Key Protein

By increasing up the levels of a well-known protein in the heart, researchers have discovered a new way to generate more blood vessels following a heart attack.   More...

Image: The nano-cocoon drug delivery system is biocompatible, specifically targets cancer cells, can carry a large drug load, and releases the drugs very quickly once inside the cancer cell. Ligands on the surface of the \"cocoon\" trick cancer cells into consuming it. Enzymes (the “worms\" in this image) inside the cocoon are unleashed once inside the cell, destroying the cocoon and releasing anticancer drugs into the cell (Photo courtesy of Dr. Zhen Gu, North Carolina State University).

Novel Anticancer Drug Delivery System Utilizes DNA-Based Nanocapsules

A novel DNA-based drug delivery system minimizes damage to normal tissues by utilizing the acidic microenvironment inside cancer cells to trigger the directed release of the anticancer drug doxorubicin.  More...
