Findings have implications in understanding, preventing and treating multiple lung diseases. Lung immunity is essential to combat all pulmonary diseases, including COVID-19, pneumonia, lung cancer,…
Malignant tumors can enhance their ability to survive and spread by suppressing antitumor immune cells in their vicinity, but a study led by researchers at…
Scientists in Montreal discover a new enzymatic complex that can stop cells from aging, opening the way to possible new cancer therapies. Researchers at Université…
This cooperation is impaired in mutations that can cause Parkinson’s disease. To break down toxic proteins more quickly, immune cells in the brain can join…
Scientists have come a long way since Antonie van Leeuwenhoek discovered teeming colonies of previously invisible bacteria and protozoa while peering through his custom-made microscopes….
Most emerging infectious diseases of humans (like COVID-19) are zoonotic – caused by viruses originating from other animal species. Identifying high-risk viruses earlier can improve…
The immune system relies on cell surface tags to recognize cancer cells. CSHL researchers discovered mice who ate high-fat diets produced less of these tags…
Theory of Bubbles Lifts Cell Biology Into a New, More Quantitative Era A study published on September 22, 2021, in the journal Nature details how…
An international team of scientists has created a three-dimensional (3D) pancreatic cancer tumor model in the laboratory, combining a bioengineered matrix and patient-derived cells that…
Research on human embryos is vital to understanding the earliest stages of human development. Currently, this research is conducted on surplus embryos willingly donated by…
Study suggests some medications might inhibit virus replication in human cells. Despite the development of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, effective therapeutics are needed until worldwide immunity has…
Researchers from the group of Hans Clevers in collaboration with the group of Bart Haagmans (Erasmus MC) established an organoid biobank to search for the…
How the cell can mend broken DNA using another DNA copy as template has puzzled researchers for years. How is it possible to find the…
New TU Dresden research group aims to uncover how stem cells respond to mechanical forces and electrical cues during the development and maintenance of the…
Like a well-trained soldier, a white blood cell uses specialized abilities to identify and ultimately destroy dangerous intruders, including creating a protrusion to effectively reach…
A top exercise researcher at the University of Virginia School of Medicine has revealed how our bodies ensure the proper functioning of the powerhouses of our cells….
Blue light is illuminating new understanding of a key signaling pathway in embryo development, tissue maintenance, and cancer genesis. Researchers at the University of Illinois…
