Unlocking the Fortress: How Nano-Messengers are Rewiring the Future of Brain Medicine

This architecture is essential for shielding neurons from toxins, pathogens, and fluctuations in the bloodstream, but it also creates a devastating bottleneck for modern medicine. More than 98% of small-molecule drugs and nearly all large biological therapeutics fail to cross the BBB in meaningful amounts, leaving many promising treatments for neurodegenerative disorders, brain tumors, and inflammatory diseases stranded in the circulation.

Fregoli Delusion: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment Fregoli Syndrome

Out of so many mental disorders, a rare disorder is the Fregoli delusion or Fregoli syndrome (FS), in which an individual holds a delusional belief that different people are in fact a single person, who keeps on changing appearances quickly or is in disguise. People affected with this condition often experience anxiety, paranoia, and agitation. It can impact the patient’s mental health and their safety and the safety of others.

How Scientists Are Discovering the Next Generation of Tuberculosis Drugs

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases, claiming over a million lives each year. TB is the deadliest infectious disease known today, claiming more lives than COVID-19. TB is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB spreads through the air when infected people breathe, cough, sneeze,

The Flip: Why Relational Field Theory Starts Where Most Physics Ends

We begin with things - particles, fields, forces - and then build laws and equations to explain how those things behave. This approach has been extraordinarily successful. It is how we arrived at quantum mechanics, general relativity, and the Standard Model.

Peroxygenases as powerful and sustainable biocatalysts in modern biochemistry

Selective oxidation reactions are central to modern biochemistry. They enable the controlled introduction of oxygen into organic molecules, a key step in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, many of the enzymatic systems traditionally used for these transformations are complex and difficult to implement in practice.
