Researchers at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) have uncovered a critical link between the immune system in early life and ...

The cells lining skin capillaries are constantly sending each other messages—tiny pulses of calcium that help regulate blood flow, sense physical forces and keep vessel walls intact. Scientists have ...

Cells can spontaneously change shape even without external signals, but the underlying mechanisms behind this form of ...

Aging affects every organ in the body, yet we still know little about how the ovary changes over time. In a new study published in Nature Aging, Yale researchers created one of the most detailed maps ...

In a new study published in Science titled, “Mitochondrial metabolism and signaling direct dendritic cell function in antitumor immunity,” researchers from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have ...

ABSTRACT: Background: The withdrawal of ractopamine from swine production, demanded by both export and local markets, represents a challenge for the swine industry. This study evaluated the effect of ...

When people think about health, they often focus on specific organs like the heart or brain. But many changes related to chronic conditions or ageing begin in the smallest units of your body — your ...

A clump of human brain cells can play the classic computer game Doom. While its performance is not up to par with humans, experts say it brings biological computers a step closer to useful real-world ...
