Study Uncovers Sex Specific Coordinated Stem Cell Dynamics in Skin Repair

By filming skin stem cells in living mice over five months, researchers at the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB), in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, have discovered that in females these cells renew the skin in a more coordinated way than in males.

Rhizosphere Tug-of-War for Iron Drives Plant-Microbe Evolutionary Co-Adaptation

Energy production in our cells, oxygen traveling in our blood, and immune cells fighting infection all depend on iron, an essential mineral that enters the food chain when plants absorb it from soil. But iron is often scarce-likely increasingly so as global weather and temperatures continue to change-and we aren't the only ones that need it.

Mount Sinai Launches Bioengineered Brain and Heart Models Into Space

Mount Sinai researchers are sending bioengineered human brain and cardiovascular tissue models into space for the first time today, as part of the SpaceX CRS-35 mission, to study brain activity, cardiovascular function, and accelerated aging in orbit.

Comprehensive Analysis of Emerging Strategies for Targeting Cyclin-Dependent Kinases in Cancer

More than 30 years after the direct connection was established between the molecular machinery controlling cell division and cancer, a new paper traces the evolution of cyclin-dependent kinase research and outlines the next generation of CDK-targeted therapies.

Cryo-EM Snapshots Capture Multi-Stage Structural Transitions During DNA Recombination

Bacteriophages, or viruses that infect bacteria, have a fiendishly simple purpose in life: attach to a bacterial cell, inject their DNA, and then use the host's genetic machinery to reproduce. In doing so, they may have evolved some of the most efficient gene editing tools ever seen in nature.

Scientists Discover Cell Division Mechanism Driving Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Experts from the University of Nottingham have discovered how a common genetic mutation disrupts the positioning of a key protein during cell division, revealing a new mechanism behind acute myeloid leukemia and a potential avenue for future treatment.

New AI Model Decodes the Language of Immune Cell Movement

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and collaborating institutions in Texas developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that helps explain how immune cells find their way to specific locations in the body and why they avoid others.

Massive Tumor Cell Analysis Reveals Secret Mechanism Behind Pancreatic Cancer Resistance

A new analysis of nearly half a million cells from dozens of pancreatic tumors, led by researchers at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center and New York University (NYU), reveals how pancreatic cancer cells continuously reshape their genetic makeup over time, enabling them to evade treatment.

Study Identifies Single Hydrophobic Hotspot Driving Tau Protein Misfolding Propagation

Diseases such as Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia are considered neurodegenerative tauopathies, in which tau proteins in the brain misfold and lead to cognitive decline. Until now, it has been unclear how misfolded tau recruits other seemingly healthy tau and causes it to misfold and clump.

Transcriptional Repression Mechanism Prevents Protective Immune Pathways From Triggering Autoimmunity

A preclinical study by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center has discovered how a protein called ZBTB44 helps prevent excessive immune activity that can cause inflammation in the colon, the main section of the large intestine. The findings, published in Nature Immunology, may help explain how immune responses go awry in a range of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases
