Scientists believe they have developed a drug that can trick the body into thinking it has exercised — but as always, there are caveats.
— weight loss and workout endurance drugs that promise users the benefits of exercise without the work.
Like Ozempic, Moujnaro, and Wegovy, which the paper curiously cites by name as game-changers in obesity treatment that spurred on "a surge of interest, research, and funding for drugs that could treat these metabolic diseases through different biological pathways," this potential exercise mimetic could, as UF's Burris suggests, "keep people healthier as they age."
But it could also, as further research in both mice and humans commences, prove to be more snake oil.

Scientists marry MRI, ultrasound, and optoacoustics for improved medical examsPhysicians and researchers rely on biomedical imaging to examine the structure and function of living tissue. This enables disease diagnostics and experiments that reveal the mechanisms behind pathologies and ways to treat them. The most popular techniques for radiation-free imaging are ultrasound and MRI scans. Optoacoustics, on the other hand, is a promising emerging approach only recently introduced into clinical practice.

Scientists reveal what fuels wildfires in Sierra Nevada MountainsWildfires in California, exacerbated by human-driven climate change, are getting more severe. To better manage them, there's a growing need to know exactly what fuels the blazes after they ignite. Scientists now report that one of the chief fuels of wildfires in California's Sierra Nevada mountains is the decades-old remains of large trees.
