Researchers identify bone-forming cells as the driver of scoliosis caused by a genetic disorder, which can be prevented ...

New scientific methods could one day render animal studies—the standard in research laboratories for more than 100 years—obsolete. Clive Svendsen, Ph.D., executive director of the Board of Governors ...

New research shows how some brain cells fight tau buildup in Alzheimer’s, pointing to internal systems that help neurons survive longer.

The recent discovery of glycoRNAs on the cell surface upended the world of cell biology. These glycoRNAs were found to form ...

Cells have a variety of processes and pathways that can repair damage, remove trash and debris, and boost healing. Scientists have now discovered a novel process in which cells eliminate stuff, and ...

Cell signalling pathways are central to maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating essential functions such as proliferation, apoptosis, and repair. In both cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, ...

In some mammals, the timing of the normally continuous embryonic development can be altered to improve the chances of survival for both the embryo and the mother. This mechanism to temporarily slow ...

Until now, it has been difficult to maintain retinal ganglion cells deep inside organoids over extended periods. The supply of nutrients and oxygen in the densely packed tissues is limited, leading to ...

A research team at The University of Osaka has found a novel pathway for depositing CENP-A into vertebrate centromeres, which ...

The Immune Atlas identifies immune signatures in MM, enhancing outcome prediction and guiding personalized therapies by analyzing over 1.3 million single cells from 337 patients.

A recent study published in the journal Frontiers in Endocrinology investigated the role of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase 42E member 1 (SDR42E1) enzyme in regulating sterol metabolism and ...
