Cells aren’t as passive as scientists once thought—they actively create internal currents to move proteins quickly and ...

Scientists at The University of Manchester have identified the method by which cells control the recycling of molecules, a process that is essential for them to move. The discovery provides ...

Researchers from University College London have devised a new way by which they could decipher the language cancer cells use to communicate among themselves. They found this unique method of ...

Researchers have found that a group of immune cells can suppress the body’s cancer-fighting response after radiation therapy.

Scientists have learned how a gene widely known for precisely positioning and sculpting various organs also controls the speed of cell division, a finding that could be useful for understanding the ...

A newly identified protein pair may drive brain cell death in Alzheimer’s, offering a clearer explanation of how the disease progresses.

Immunotherapy has been one of the most transformative treatments for cancer patients in recent decades, shifting the emphasis ...

Researchers have found that a deeper look at proteins and cells may help explain why prostate cancer tumors often become resistant to hormone therapy. Researchers found that looking at cell patterns ...

The surfaces of cells are decorated with receptors, and the interactions between receptors and their binding partners are involved in a huge variety of pathways and processes. Some pathogenic bacteria ...

Recent work has revealed some of the many crucial functions of astrocytes, brain cells that were once thought to play primarily supportive roles for neurons. Astrocytes do handle debris around neurons ...

In people with chronic heart failure, the heart doesn't pump blood as effectively as it should. This leaves the patient weak, tired, and short of breath. The disease is life-threatening, and around ...
