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

Three-Dimensional Genome Architecture Actively Dictates Phenotypic Novelties in Octopuses

Octopuses, squid and cuttlefish, collectively known as coleoid cephalopods, have evolved exceptionally large and elaborately structured nervous systems capable of complex behaviors such as problem-solving and rapid camouflage.

Study Creates Global Single-Cell Map of Human Immune System Aging

While birthday candles measure the number of years someone has lived, they don't always tell the full story about someone's health.

Microbe Retains Self-Replication Machinery While Discarding Almost All Metabolic Pathways

Scientists have discovered a previously unknown microorganism, which has the smallest genome ever found, that is possibly able to replicate and express its own genetic information.

Epigenetic DNA Methylation Clocks Track Gradual Cellular Rejuvenation Across Fifty Days

Researchers from the University Hospital of Bonn and the University of Bonn have succeeded in dramatically rejuvenating human cells in a test tube. To do so, they directly reprogrammed red blood cell precursors into stem cells from which neurons can be derived. During this process, the molecular clocks that indicate a cell's age were reset.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Maps Neuroblastoma Intratumoral Heterogeneity

Neuroblastoma is the most common solid tumor found outside of the brain in children, yet why some children respond well to treatment while others do not has remained poorly understood. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists and their collaborators built one of the most comprehensive datasets of neuroblastoma cells to date, using it to define the tumor's cell types and identify a gene signature marking a malignant cell population tied to poor prognosis.

Retrotransposon Reactivation Suggests Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors Lower Cancer Risk

A tumor suppressor gene known as p53 is mutated in more than half of all cancers, but how it acts to prevent cancer formation is largely unknown.
