Scientists discover a hidden cause of aging cells that can be reversed
Scientists discover a hidden cause of aging cells that can be reversed - Date: - June 11, 2026 - Source: - Leibniz Institute on Aging—Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) - Summary: - Researchers discovered that declining levels of phosphatidylcholine may be a major cause of age-related mitochondrial dysfunction and loss of cellular energy. Remarkably, boosting this nutrient restored more youthful mitochondrial performance in aging organisms, suggesting some aspects of aging can be slowed or reversed.
Why are sloths slow? It's in their DNA
It's in their DNA Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Sloths are the slowest mammals on the planet, but living in dense jungles has made them notoriously difficult to study. For the first time, scientists have now sequenced and analyzed the two-toed sloth genome and revealed the genetics behind its extremely slow metabolism. Building on work initiated at the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research (IZW) in Berlin, Germany, researchers at the Wellcome Sanger...
Half-ton early bovines roamed 4-million-year-old grasslands in Europe
Half-ton early bovines roamed 4-million-year-old grasslands in Europe Robert Egan Associate Editor The first large-sized bovines grew to up to half a ton 4 million years ago in the European Early Pliocene, an early step toward our modern diversity of large-bodied buffalo and cattle, according to a study published June 3, 2026, in the open access journal PLOS One by Leonardo Sorbelli of the Leibniz Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity Science, Germany, and colleagues. Bovines are major...
Small Magellanic Cloud is being pulled apart, reshaping how astronomers read its past
Small Magellanic Cloud is being pulled apart, reshaping how astronomers read its past Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Using more than a decade of observations from the VISTA Survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC), researchers measured the motions of millions of stars across the Small Magellanic Cloud with unprecedented precision. The new study, published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, provides direct evidence of a galaxy-wide tidal disruption of the Small Magellanic...
