Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking method to test how thousands of active substances influence cellular metabolism ...

FREISING, Germany — Next time you take a sip of coffee and scrunch your nose at its bitter taste, your DNA might be to blame.

Researchers are able to test in parallel the effects of over 1500 active substances on cell metabolism. Their analysis also led to the discovery of previously unknown mechanisms for known medications.

How do active substances alter metabolic processes in cells? Answering that question would provide valuable clues for the development of new medications. However, investigating such modes of action ...

Plant-based medicine advocates haven’t given up their efforts to see that therapeutic method take root. Question 4, defeated ...

They then treated the cells in each well with one of over 1500 substances from a compound library, and used a method called mass spectrometry to measure how thousands of small biomolecules inside ...
