Researchers discovered that a tiny structural feature of the enzyme GPX4 helps keep neurons safe. A rare mutation removes ...

Cell death triggered by GPX4 loss was slowed in cell cultures and in mouse model using compounds that specifically inhibit ferroptosis.

A next-generation drug tested in yeast was found to extend lifespan and slow aging by influencing a major growth-control pathway. Researchers also uncovered an unexpected role for agmatinases, enzymes ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich, the Technical University of Munich and the LMU University Hospital Munich uncovered a mechanism that protects nerve cells from premature cell death, known as ...

Researchers have identified how a single mutation in the GPX4 enzyme causes neurons to undergo ferroptosis, leading to severe early-onset dementia.

When you’re one of the 70 million Americans whose digestion is off, it’s understandable to want to do what you can to turn things around quickly. Social media is packed with posts from people who ...

"There are three digestive enzymes made by your pancreas," says Mary Vouyiouklis Kellis, MD, a specialist in the department of endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at the Cleveland Clinic. "Most ...

Imagine trying to bake a cake without heat. You’ve got all the ingredients like flour, eggs and sugar, but nothing is happening. That’s what your body would be like without enzymes: potential but no ...
