Scientists at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered a previously unknown system of internal "trade winds" that ...

Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move. Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical ...

Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin have created a data science framework to better understand how cells travel through the body. The researchers ...

Breakthrough research reveals that cells use directed fluid flows to push key proteins forward, offering new insights into cancer, immunity, wound ...

In a fruit fly, nerve cells that detect limb movement are silenced when the insect walks or grooms. This on-off switch may help the nervous system to shift between two states: one helps keep the body ...

Cancer cell movement during metastasis is a dynamic process regulated by several different signals. However, the way cells receive, process and respond to these signals has been extremely hard to ...

The body's cells change their shape to close gaps such as wounds – with part of the cell flexing depending on the curve of the gap and the organization of cell-internal structures, a new study reveals ...

Scientists at Keck Medicine of USC are testing an experimental stem cell therapy that aims to restore the brain’s ability to produce dopamine, the chemical whose loss drives Parkinson’s disease. The ...
