Intestinal Cells Use Signal Rhythms to Determine Cell Growth

A study conducted at the Hubrecht Institute reveals that the intestines use the rhythm of a signal to decide which cells to make.

Naturally Occurring Protein Balances Immune Protection and Excessive Tissue Inflammation

A naturally occurring protein can help the immune system fight viral infections while also reducing the damaging inflammation that often accompanies them, a new study from McMaster University has found.

Study: Maternal Autoantibodies Targeting IL-1RA Trigger Premature Labor

A typical pregnancy lasts 40 weeks, but for about 1 in 10 pregnant women labor begins too soon. Premature or preterm birth is the leading cause of newborn deaths worldwide. Yet doctors have struggled to understand why preterm birth occurs - or how to predict which pregnancies are at highest risk.

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.

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

Nagoya University Team Identifies BCAT1 Enzyme as Key Driver of Cardiac Fibrosis

Heart failure often develops after a heart attack because excessive collagen-based scar tissue forms during repair. While collagen is necessary to reinforce scars, disease and chronic inflammation can cause overproduction, which stiffens the heart muscle and impairs its pumping ability.

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.

Proteomic Profiling Uncovers Twenty-Four Plasma Proteins Tied to Gut Mucosal Inflammation

Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system reacts adversely to gluten. Eating gluten causes inflammation in the gut, which can damage the intestine and impair its ability to absorb nutrients.

Stem Cell Models Demonstrate Precise Cellular Nibbling of Pathological Fibrils

Researchers at the University of Oxford have uncovered a previously unrecognized protective role for microglia, the brain's resident immune cells, in Parkinson's disease.

Aldabra Giant Tortoise Genome Provides Evolutionary Blueprint for Cellular Resilience

Researchers studying a giant tortoise named Jonathan say it's not just good genes, but lack of genetic wear and tear that have kept him going for nearly two centuries.

Undigested Cellular Waste Secretes Toxic Signals That Zombify Surrounding Tissue

As we grow older, our bodies accumulate "zombie cells"-living cells that have stopped dividing or functioning normally-but linger in our tissues, contributing to chronic inflammation and age-related diseases.

Spatial Single-Cell Transcriptomics Maps Cellular Niches in Fatal COVID-19 Lungs

Researchers at the University of Liège have used imaging-based spatial single-cell transcriptomics to map the cellular organization of lungs from people who died with severe COVID-19.

Invasive E. coli Strains Promote Host Invasion of Harmless Strains

When scientists assess how dangerous a bacterium is, the first question often seems simple: can it be stopped or killed?

Single-Cell Metabolic Profiling Identifies Key Bioenergetic Targets in Human Tumor Tissue

Immune cells can reach head and neck tumors, but once there, many stop functioning. This helps explain why immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors - which have transformed treatment for some cancers - benefit only 17%–23% of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. These are cancers that arise from cells lining the mouth, throat and voicebox.
