– Sex-specific differences in the knee joint should be considered as early as childhood to help prevent higher incidence and severity of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in women later in life, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers propose in a review of clinical data.

An extensive family of proteins that gives human skin mechanical strength also appears to organize molecular signals that control skin cell activity, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows. Their findings, published in Developmental Cell, could lead to new ways to fight a

Specialized cells that conduct electricity to keep the heart beating have a previously unrecognized ability to regenerate in the days after birth, a new study in mice by UT Southwestern researchers suggests.

A protein produced by the human immune system can potently inhibit several coronaviruses, including the one behind the current COVID-19 outbreak, an international team of investigators reports today.

Antibodies that target specific tuberculosis (TB) proteins are effective at inhibiting the bacteria that cause TB, the infectious disease that claims the most lives worldwide, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers found.

Kidney damage that seemingly heals appears to mutate the DNA in the mitochondria of kidney cells, making the organ less resilient to future stressors and reducing its function over time, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows.

Genetically modifying cells from different species allows them to adhere to each other and grow together, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers reported in a new study.

The world’s top competitors in the 2026 Olympics, which continue through Feb. 22, may offer a valuable lesson to those seeking to improve their workouts or just to get more active. While these elite athletes are performing at a peak level on a global stage, it’s the work they put in behind the

A UT Southwestern Medical Center study of hundreds of underserved women showed that depression and anxiety, in addition to physical factors such as a higher body mass index and previous births, are associated with lingering postpartum urinary incontinence. The findings, published in Urogynecology

UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered an RNA pathway that appears to push stem cells to form nephrons, the functional units of kidneys. Their findings, published in Nature Communications, could lead to therapies that increase the number of nephrons in individuals at risk of
