Tackling the collateral damage from antibiotics
Scientists pave the way for reducing the harmful side effects antibiotics have on gut bacteria
15-Oct-2021
Antibiotics help us to treat bacterial infections and save millions of lives each year. But they can also harm the helpful microbes residing in our gut, weakening one of our body’s first lines of defence against pathogens and compromising the multiple beneficial effects our microbiota has for our ...
Fungus produces active agent in a medicinal herb
Researchers discover that a fungus in Tatarinow’s aster produces bioactive agents
09-Dec-2019
Tatarinow's aster is used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a number of ailments; the plant contains an active ingredient known as astin – and it is this agent which cancer researchers are now investigating. However, the plant does not produce the astins itself, as was assumed for a long ...
Making cancer stem cells visible to the immune system
New results may enable innovative treatment concept against leukemia
19-Jul-2019
Leukemia stem cells protect themselves against the immune defense by suppressing a target molecule for killer cells. This protective mechanism can be tricked with drugs. In the journal "Nature", scientists from Basel, Tübingen and Heidelberg describe the new therapeutic approaches that can ...
How multicellular cyanobacteria transport molecules
16-Jul-2019
Researchers from ETH Zurich and the University of Tübingen have taken a high-resolution look at the structure and function of cell-to-cell connections in filamentous, multicellular cyanobacteria. This enables them to explain how these microorganisms regulate the transport of various substances ...
How sleep strengthens the immune system
Scientists discover new mechanism that supports our immune system during sleep
14-Feb-2019
Getting enough sleep is vital to supporting our immune system in fighting off pathogens – so much is common knowledge. But what we don't know is how exactly sleep affects certain immune functions. Scientists at the University of Tübingen and the University of Lübeck have now discovered a new ...
Natural substance as alternative to controversial glyphosate?
Novel unusual sugar from cyanobacteria acts as natural herbicide
05-Feb-2019
Researchers at the University of Tübingen have discovered a natural substance that could compete with the controversial herbicide glyphosate: The newly discovered sugar molecule synthesized from cyanobacteria inhibits the growth of various microorganisms and plants but is harmless to humans and ...
Breakthrough in the investigation of feared pathogens
Researchers uncover camouflage strategy of multi-resistant bacteria
26-Nov-2018
Researchers at the University of Tübingen and the German Center for Infection Research (DZIF) have achieved a breakthrough in the decoding of multi-resistant pathogens. The team led by Professor Andreas Peschel and Professor Thilo Stehle was able to decode the structure and function of a ...
Defects at the spinterface disrupt transmission
Researchers put metal-oxides and organic magnets together; applications for electronics in sight
23-Sep-2016
Magnets made of organic materials have a number of advantages over the classic metal or alloy magnets. They are chemically more flexible, cheaper to make, and can be better adapted to various purposes and varying designs. In practice, researchers want to apply both types of magnets in electronics ...
