Scientists have identified how a bacteria in the gut can act as a protective species against Salmonella infection. A team at ...

Combining a serum-free medium with a xeno-free serum replacement creates a reliable system for generating functional dendritic cells and macrophages. From foundational technologies to cutting-edge ...

Scientists at Colossal Biosciences have achieved a milestone to resurrecting the woolly mammoth: laboratory mice with thick, ...

Discover how groundbreaking research reveals that gut microbes and probiotics could revolutionize anxiety relief and mental health care.

Young germ-free mice transplanted with the microbes of aged mice also experienced higher inflammatory signaling and increased ...

Specifically, Ken Cadwell of the Skirball Institute of Biomolecular Medicine at New York University’s Langone Medical Center and his colleagues found that MNV infection in germ-free and ...

Chronology of mouse germ cell development and the main epigenetic events that occur. PGCs (primordial germ cells) first emerge at embryonic day 7.25 (E7.25) as a cluster of about twenty cells.

These were called “germ-free” mice. To test anxiety levels, researchers used several carefully designed behavioral tests. In one test called the open field test, they placed mice in a large ...

Researchers led by Jameson observed that mice raised without any gut bacteria, known as germ-free mice, exhibited significantly lower activity in their vagus nerve compared to mice with a normal ...

Acurx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACXP) ("Acurx" or the "Company") is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of small molecule antibiotics for difficult-to-treat bacterial ...

For this study, Le and his team used a model of germ-free C57BL/6 mice — mice that have had their gut microbiomes removed — to study a potential link between gut microbes and anxiety.
