Molecular mechanism of tree shrew’s insensitivity to spiciness
Spicy foods elicit a pungent or hot and painful sensation that repels almost all mammals .Prof . LAI Ren ’ group from Kunming Institute of Zoology , Chinese Academy of Sciences and researchers from Zhejiang University observed that tree shrews ( Tupaia belangeri chinensis ) , which possess a close relationship with primates .Can directly and actively consume chili peppers , despite the deep ge... more
Pore-forming protein initiates scar-less healing
Tissue repair is a common problem during animal survival .However , scar tissue formation is a common by-product of human wound healing , which can lead to severe clinical dysfunction .Therefore , how to promote tissue regeneration and repair while reducing scar formation is an important issue .Compared with epidermal growth factor ( EGF ) widely used in clinic , this complex can not only promo... more

How centipedes slay giant prey
Centipede rapidly subdues Kunming mouseThis study uncovers the molecular mode of action of centipede venom , which helps the tiny creatures subdue larger-bodied prey .Structural and functional analysis of this interaction revealed that two specific interacting residue pairs ( K13 - D266 and R12 - D288 ) are crucial to the toxin ' s effect on KCNQ4 . ? ? In vivo tests further revealed that SsT... more
