Centriolar Satellites Coordinate Crucial Internal Cellular Protein Trafficking Networks

Inside every cell, thousands of proteins must reach the right place at the right time. Helping coordinate this complex logistics network are centriolar satellites-tiny, membrane-less organelles that play important roles in protein trafficking, cell division, and the formation of cilia.

Mapping Diverse Brain Cell Populations Unlocks Deep Hidden Molecular Secrets

Understanding how molecular changes shape brain function and disease requires more than measuring genes in bulk tissue.

Mice Studies Prove Engineered Molecules Eradicate Tumors Within Eleven Days

A two-headed molecule designed by Stanford Medicine researchers hijacks one of the most common protein drivers of B-cell lymphoma, flipping it from its role as a promoter of cell growth into an arbiter of cell death.

New Transcriptomic Framework Identifies Early Cell Damage Before Organ Failure

Researchers at the University of Cologne, University Hospital Cologne, and the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research have developed a method that, for the first time, enables damage to individual cells to be precisely quantified.

Study Redefines How Cancer Cells Enter Senescence

Stopping tumor growth is only half the battle. Rather than kill tumor cells, many cancer therapies can only push them into cellular senescence, a state in which cells stop dividing but do not die. These "undead" cells will continue to release signals that reshape the tumor environment.

New Hybrid Compounds Fight Aggressive Cancers and Infections

Cancer patients often face more than the disease itself. Their treatment is frequently complicated by infections and other health conditions, meaning they may need to take several different medications at once.

Scientists Give Lab-Grown Brain Organoids a Regional Biological Compass

The human brain is often described as one of the most complex structures in biology, and much of its power comes from how it's organized.

Powerful Imaging Technique Captures Gene Transcription Inside Living Organisms

All living things have a fleet of tiny copy machines that turn instructions from DNA into RNA, the molecules responsible for helping build proteins that keep organisms alive.

Antibodies for Visualizing Cell Identity and Tumor Architecture

Whether you are characterizing cell state transitions, assessing organelle integrity, or building a multiplex immunofluorescence (IF) assay, you need reliable structural markers for your imaging.

Single-Gene Edits Fall Short of Stopping Immune Rejection in Beta Cell Grafts

In people with type 1 diabetes, the immune system mistakenly destroys the pancreatic beta cells responsible for producing insulin. Patients therefore require lifelong insulin therapy to regulate their blood glucose levels.

Multiple Specialized Immune Cells Cooperate to Suppress Opportunistic Lung Fungi

Most people carry the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans in their lungs for life and never know it, held in check by the immune system.

Reengineering Glial Cell Signaling Pathways to Slow Down ALS Symptoms

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that, according to the CDC, currently impacts around 35,000 Americans-with 5,000 more diagnosed each year.

Study Shows How Zombie Cells Drive Chronic Inflammaging-and Age-Related Diseases

When our immune system detects a pathogen or injury, it sets off biological alarm bells. This alert brings in a variety of immune and other cells to deal with the threat and heal any harm done.

Locally Activated Skull T Cells Halt Glioblastoma Growth in Mice

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have discovered lymph node-like structures in the skull bone marrow of mice for the first time and demonstrated that they act as rapid first responders against brain cancer before distant lymph nodes get the signal that abnormal cells are present.

Scientists Discover Diverse Evolutionary Paths for Breaking Embryonic Symmetry

One of the most important milestones in the early life of an organism is when the embryo breaks symmetry and arranges itself to form the head (anterior) at one end and tail (posterior) at the other end.

Single-Cell Study Decodes Ancient Plant Partnership With Soil Fungi

Scientists at VIB and Ghent University have produced the first high-resolution, cell-by-cell map of how tomato roots respond to colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Basel Study Challenges Long-Held Assumptions About Coronin Proteins

Scientific progress comes not only from discovering something entirely new, but also from taking a fresh look at long-held assumptions.

Advanced AI Tools Sift Through Complex Data to Find Gene Mutations

One of the most important goals of studying genetics is to find genes that are involved with diseases. The problem is that most diseases aren't caused by a single gene or mutation.

New Research Links Chronic Inflammation to Tumor Microenvironment Epigenetic Changes

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer treatment, yet many colorectal tumors remain resistant. Even among patients who initially respond, more than half eventually develop resistance, highlighting the need to better understand how tumors evade immune attack.

Study Shows How Genetic Switches Help 3D Printed Bone Grow Blood Vessels

An interdisciplinary team of engineers and chemists at Penn State has laid the groundwork to 3D print spheroids - tiny clusters of living cells - capable of regenerating bone tissue in response to severe trauma or infections.
