Researchers at Hebrew University use RNA trans-splicing to program cells for disease detection ...

While many of life's mysteries remain unsolved, every biologist can describe the basic processes performed by a living organism, including energy use, reproduction, growth and development. While these ...

Selecting specific cells to be used in an investigational therapy has led to improved recovery of heart function in a new study employing a lab model for myocardial infarction, the medical term for ...

Researchers at the University of Minnesota claim to have created the first synthetic cell. They are calling it SpudCell, ...

Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

While humans can regularly replace certain cells, like those in our blood and gut, we cannot naturally regrow most other parts of the body. For example, when the tiny sensory hair cells in our inner ...

Our cells rely on tightly regulated signaling pathways to control when they grow, divide and survive. When these regulatory ...

B lymphocytes exhibit dual roles in tumorigenesis, acting as both allies and adversaries in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Their anti-tumor functions include recognizing tumor-associated antigens, ...

As people age, so do their stem cells. Scientists have known for years that the stem cells that go on to become blood cells ...
