In certain contexts, the Notch receptor may participate in “reverse signaling,” influencing neighboring cells directly.

Cell signalling pathways are central to maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating essential functions such as proliferation, apoptosis, and repair. In both cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, ...

A team at Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U) has uncovered a previously unrecognized molecular ...

MIT engineers have developed a new way to amplify the T-cell response to mRNA vaccines—an advance that could lead to much more powerful cancer vaccines and stronger protection against infectious ...

Autophagy is essentially the 'rubbish collection' of our cells. If there are problems in this process, which is so important for our health, diseases such as Parkinson's can result. In their latest ...

As part of the body's first line of defense against foreign invaders, macrophages play an integral role in the innate immune ...

The researchers used lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to deliver cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS) mRNA to cancer cells. This results in production of the endogenous stimulator of interferon genes ...

Macrophages use cell‑volume changes to sense danger, reprogram gene expression, and heighten inflammatory and antiviral ...

Cardiac regenerative medicine represents a promising strategy aimed at restoring impaired heart function by replacing or repairing damaged myocardial ...

Initially, cells are dissociated from liver tissues into single-cell suspensions using in vivo enzymatic perfusion or ex vivo digestion methods. The cells of interest are then enriched from the ...
