Until now, β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) has been known as a compound produced by the liver to be used as fuel. In a new study, researchers discovered that BHB also participates in another metabolic pathway; in this case, an enzyme called CNDP2 joins BHB to amino acids; furthermore, the most abundant BHB-amino acid, N-β-hydroxybutyryl phenylalanine (BHB-Phe), can

Bubble use evolved in many small invertebrates to enable underwater breathing, but, until recently, there has been no evidence that vertebrate animals use bubbles in a similar manner. Only one group of vertebrates, semi-aquatic Anolis lizards, may be an exception: these lizards dive underwater when threatened and, while underwater, rebreathe a bubble of air over
Io is the most volcanically active body in the Solar System. Io’s volcanoes are powered by both the extreme tides from Jupiter and the gravitational interactions between it and Jupiter’s other moons. These tides generate friction inside Io. Using data from an infrared camera on NASA’s Juno orbiter called the Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM)
