Researchers have identified an unexpected mechanism that links age-related stress to the decline of blood-forming stem cells. Instead of triggering cell death, a known signaling pathway subtly ...
Cells are enveloped by a lipid membrane that gives them structure and provides a barrier between the cell and its environment ...
Researchers have found a way to make cancer-killing immune cells more powerful and precise. By adding specific signaling components, they boosted the cells’ readiness to attack tumors. Surprisingly, ...
A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic ...
(MEMPHIS, Tenn. – November 6, 2025) The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme’s “tail” called phosphorylation patterns.
We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (T RM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to disease. Rather than coursing through the bloodstream-as many T cells ...
Stem cells are the body's ultimate shape-shifters, sustaining tissues by balancing two competing demands: maintaining their ...
Deep in the lungs, resident memory B cells stand guard against influenza reinfection—but whether they remain there may depend ...
For the first time, a stem cell model has produced a structure resembling an early human embryo with a yolk-sac-like ...
A new paper published today in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key ...
