St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have discovered how tumors disable immune "gatekeeper" cells that alert the rest of the immune system to the presence of cancer - and how restoring ...

Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

A protein that helps cancer cells hide from the immune system may have a critical weakness, according to research that could ...

Using a variety of laboratory and animal models, the team found that cysteine fuels the production of the antioxidant glutathione to regulate T-cell activity, but it also helps T cells multiply and ...

A single-atom nanozyme mimicking cytochrome c oxidase restores mitochondrial energy production in stem cells, shifting their ...

A research team led by scientists from the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in São Paulo, Brazil, has made significant ...

The cerebellum is instrumental in coordinating movement and refining motor control through intricate neuronal circuitry, with Purkinje cells serving as the central integrators of sensory inputs and ...

When people think about health, they often focus on specific organs like the heart or brain. But many changes related to chronic conditions or ageing begin in the smallest units of your body — your ...

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to the function of motile cilia, the hair-like structures extending from the ...

Scientists uncover a metabolic vulnerability in aging cells that could be key to restoring resilience and combating ...

Creating artificial systems that mimic the functioning of cells is one of the goals of what is known as synthetic biology.
