Study reveals metabolic signaling pathways that influence key immune cells

Effector regulatory T cells, also known as eTreg cells, are a specialized subset of white blood cells that maintain the immune system.

Researchers explain how tissue tension influences the orientation of cell division

The human body experiences many cell divisions during a lifetime. Such a biological process is crucial to form and sustain organs and tissues inside the body.

Study detects changes in how diseased neurons sense and use oxygen

Scientists have devised a new method for isolating a kind of brain cell that is related to symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

New way to predict who will respond to cancer therapies that block Wnt production

Scientists have identified possible means to prognosticate who will respond to cancer therapies that inhibit Wnt production.

Astrocytes regulate inhibitory synapses by binding to neurons

In the orchestra of the brain, the firing of each neuron is controlled by two notes--excitatory and inhibitory-- that come from two distinct forms of a cellular structure called synapses.

Discovering a new step in immune cell generation

In this interview, Dr. Shalin Naik speaks to AZoLifeSciences about his team's latest research that led to the discovery of a new step in the development of T and B cells that could help us to better understand leukemia.

Genetic signature in localized prostate cancer can predict likelihood of tumor metastases

Researchers have identified a genetic signature in localized prostate cancer that can predict whether the cancer is likely to spread, or metastasize, early in the course of the disease and whether it will respond to anti-androgen therapy, a common treatment for advanced disease.

Scientists identify potential targets against coronavirus

Scientists comprehensively studied the RNA genomic structure of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.

11 Nov 2020

Low levels of hydrogen peroxide can slow down cell aging

High levels of reactive oxygen species, called oxidants, are detrimental to cells in all organisms and have been associated with ageing.

Study shows how UCH37 enzyme regulates a cell’s waste management system

Researchers reported the discovery of a new enzyme, called UCH37, that controls the waste management system of a cell.

9 Nov 2020

Researchers identify a new solution for treating ligament injuries

Ligament injuries that affect scores of regular citizens and athletes are sidelined every year. Added to this, recovery is painful and takes a long time and, at times, a return to normal function is never achieved because of the formation of scars—an aspect that makes ligament injuries inclined to more damage.

Researcher creates “leaf profile” of components involved in CO2 journey

During the process of photosynthesis, leaves trap the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and convert it into organic compounds.

Study shows memory T cells are formed earlier than previously thought

A person will acquire immunity to a specific disease when T cells develop into memory cells after making contact with pathogens.

4 Nov 2020

MUSC researchers demonstrate polarized Th17 cells can effectively eradicate tumors

Adoptive transfer of T-cells can extend survival and, at times, treat patients with advanced solid tumors.

2 Nov 2020

Study probes mechanism by which COVID-19 distribution in the body damages erythrocytes

Experts have investigated the mechanisms of COVID-19 inside-the-body distribution related to the damage of erythrocytes.

2 Nov 2020

'Training’ the innate immunity may improve the success of immunotherapy

Immunotherapies, such as checkpoint inhibitor drugs, have made worlds of difference for the treatment of cancer. Most clinicians and scientists understand these drugs to act on what's known as the adaptive immune system, the T cells and B cells that respond to specific threats to the body.

Scientists sequence full genome of ornamental variety of miscanthus

An international research team has sequenced the full genome of an ornamental variety of miscanthus, a wild perennial grass emerging as a prime candidate for sustainable bioenergy crops.

Scientists identify physiological mechanism that maintains regenerative capacity of muscle stem cells

Researchers at UPF, the National Centre for Cardiovascular Research, ICREA and Ciberned have identified a physiological mechanism that maintains the regenerative capacity of muscle stem cells, and surprisingly resists the passage of time far more than expected, until geriatric age.

28 Oct 2020

Cellular senescence variations may help control health and onset of age-related diseases

Researchers from Kumamoto University, Japan have proposed that cellular senescence variations during the aging process could lead to control of health and onset of age-related diseases.

27 Oct 2020

Ketogenic diets can prevent or reverse heart failure caused by metabolic process

Research from Saint Louis University finds that high fat or "ketogenic" diets could completely prevent, or even reverse heart failure caused by a metabolic process.
