Study shows the impact of ATP binding in human integrin-linked kinase and cell behavior

Getting from point A to point B might be difficult, especially for mobile cells.

Proteins surrounding organs and tissues switch off natural killer cells’ “killer” function, study finds

Natural killer (NK) cells, which are part of the body’s innate, or first-line, immune response, interact with tumor cells, viral infections, and solid organ transplants, according to a new study.

ISU researchers receive major funding to go forward on blood stem cells research

For years, scientists have been unable to create a patient’s blood cells to cure blood illnesses, but a recently implemented federal funding might help IOWA State University researchers take important steps toward making that prospect a reality.

Cellular recycling system of autophagy likely to help in wound repair

In the fruit fly Drosophila, a team led by Maria Leptin discovered that autophagy, a stress response process in cells, plays a significant role in wound repair.

Unusual partners aid new blood vessel development

Insufficient oxygen to an area like the heart or legs, called hypoxia, is a cue to our bodies to make more blood vessels, and scientists have found some unusual partners are key to making that happen.

Research develops novel ways to recreate totipotency by cellular reprogramming

Adult cells in our bodies can only produce cells of the same type. A skin cell, for example, can only produce skin cells and not muscle cells. This restricts the therapeutic potential of mature cells.

Researchers discover new fluorescent DNA label, likely to help detect cancer risk

Scientists develop a new fluorescent label that provides a sharper image of how DNA architecture is disturbed in cancer cells.

7 Mar 2022

Researchers develop new method to detect the role of enigmatic gene sequences

Karolinska Institute researchers have recently developed new high-precision techniques for determining the role of these noncoding sequences.

Protein appears key to the function and survival of brain cells most impacted by glaucoma

A ubiquitous protein called sigma 1 receptor, which is known to protect cells from stress, appears key to the function and survival of the neurons most impacted by glaucoma, scientists report.

Intestinal cell changes are driven by the BMP signaling pathway, study finds

Intestinal cells can change specializations during their lives. The BMP signaling pathway – an important communication mechanism between cells – appears to be the driver of these changes.

Researchers gain better understanding of the fast signaling dynamics in stem cells

Divide, differentiate or die? Making decisions at the right time and place is what defines a cell's behavior and is particularly critical for stem cells of an developing organisms.
