Sabotaging T Cell Exhaustion for Cancer Therapy

Like all hardworking things, the cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) of the immune system charged with detecting and destroying cancer cells tend to get very tired-so much so, in fact, that they can even die from exhaustion.

Inter-Organelle Crosstalk Regulates Protein Biogenesis in Eukaryotic Cells

Janelia researchers have uncovered a novel way that two of the structures inside cells-the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lysosomes-coordinate the production of proteins, highlighting how interactions between organelles are important for regulating cellular processes.

Oxidative Stress May Hold Clues to the Origins of Repetitive Behaviors

Abnormal repetitive behaviors in mice are strongly linked to multiple biomarkers of oxidative stress, which occurs when antioxidants cannot counteract the effects of harmful molecules in the body, according to a study published November 5, 2025, in the open-access journal PLOS One by Kendall Coden and Dr. Joseph Garner of Stanford University, U.S.

Leptin-Sensitive Brain Circuit Helps Overcome Anxiety to Perform Essential Behaviors

How do mammals manage to eat in situations that cause anxiety, step into exposed spaces, or slow down when anxiety drives them to keep moving? A new study pinpoints a leptin-sensitive circuit in the lateral hypothalamus that helps to overcome anxiety to perform essential behaviors such as exploring, feeding, and limiting maladaptive hyperactivity.
