A new study from Stanford Medicine has found a way to help protect brain cells in a certain type of Parkinson’s disease that ...

In A Nutshell As cells age, they deliberately shrink a major internal structure called the endoplasmic reticulum. This downsizing happens early in adulthood and shifts cells away from protein ...

Researchers at IIT Bombay develop a simpler and efficient method to recover immune cells grown in the lab for T-cell–based ...

This image shows killer T cells surrounding and attacking a cancer cell. A new atlas developed by researchers at UC San Diego could make it possible to design custom T cells for immunotherapy to ...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), a powerful form of immunotherapy, have revolutionized cancer treatment by unleashing the body's own immune system to fight tumors. These compounds target the ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have identified an important immune response that helps explain why ...

Cancer cells mount an instant, energy‑rich response to being physically squeezed, according to a study published in the journal Nature Communications. The surge of energy is the first reported ...

Researchers have developed two innovative tools to help us delve deeper into cell communication, offering spatial insight ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells—one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...

Spaceflight makes certain human stem cells age faster, a new study has found, furthering scientists’ understanding of the potential effects of space exploration on the human body. Stem cells are found ...

Zebrafish can regenerate sensory hair cells that humans permanently lose, like those in the inner ear linked to hearing and balance. New research reveals two specific genes that control how different ...
