News

In rare cases, autoantibodies can cause severe reactions to a live-attenuated virus Chikungunya vaccine that has been discontinued in the U.S.

A new study shows that preexisting autoantibodies in a small subset of the population can allow weakened vaccine viruses to escape control, explaining some adverse events tied to this one kind of Chikungunya vaccine, which is no longer available in the U.S.

Study on brain navigation reveals function of an unconventional electrical-signaling mode in neurons

New work in fruit flies uncovers an electrical trick that allows neurons to compute direction efficiently by juggling multiple signaling mechanisms. These findings could reframe our understanding of how some neurons operate.

The color of your fat could determine the level of your blood pressure

Scientists knew that obesity raises the risk of hypertension. Now Paul Cohen's team has uncovered the mechanism—and the enzyme—that explains how fat can stiffen blood vessels and drive blood pressure upward.
