When compost piles reach nearly boiling temperatures, most life would perish—but not the resilient microbes thriving within.

Could a new laser treatment prevent blindness from AMD? Learn how this therapy uses gentle heat to activate the eye's repair ...

Clinical trials for a laser treatment targeting this common eye disease will begin in Finland next spring, and researchers hope it could become available to patients within three years. About one in ...

Aalto University scientists have created a laser-based treatment that uses gentle heat to stop the progression of dry macular ...

Yet it can survive, thanks to an internal defence system made up of “helper” molecules known as heat shock proteins.Among these, a powerful group called small heat shock proteins act as the parasite’s ...

Ageing is inevitable but the rate of decline can be offset by regular exercise, says Dr Paul Taylor, author of 'The Hardiness ...

Plants synthesize several families of low molecular weight (LMW) heat shock proteins (HSPs) in response to elevated temperatures. We have characterized two cDNAs, HSP18.1 and HSP17.9, that encode ...

This study was conducted to investigate the response of maize (Zea mays) male and female mature reproductive tissues to temperature stress. We have tested the fertilization abilities of the stressed ...
