Scientists have discovered that a protein linked to cell death is secretly driving the aging of blood stem cells in a ...

The findings indicate that it may be possible to improve nerve cell health in ALS by modulating the activity of certain ...

Inside every cell, a cleanup operation runs around the clock. Proteins are constantly damaged by wear and tear. Some can be repaired, while others must be dismantled and recycled. When this system ...

Cells can be thought of as cities, with factories, a transport system, and lots of building activity. An international team ...

How does blood age? A new study identifies the MLKL protein as a non-lethal driver of hematopoietic stem cell aging via ...

Scientists have discovered a way to supercharge the immune system’s T cells by blocking a protein called Ant2, forcing the cells to rewire how they generate energy. This shift makes them more powerful ...

An innovative gene-editing strategy could establish a new way for the body to manufacture therapeutic proteins—including ...

A new study has identified a molecular guardian that keeps skin cells from forgetting what they are and transforming into ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified a previously unknown system inside cells that works like internal “trade winds,” rapidly carrying essential proteins to the cell’s ...

Processes such as wound healing, hair growth, and the continual renewal of cells all rely on cell division. In this process, chromosomes must be evenly distributed between two daughter cells. Even ...

A long-standing mystery in cancer treatment is how tumor cells so often become resistant to drugs, even ones they have never encountered before.

Canadians swallow millions of pills every day to treat common health issues like high blood pressure, high cholesterol and Type II diabetes, but scientists are working at the molecular level to turn ...
