New findings suggest an unexpected path to killing cancer cells could make the hottest cancer treatment, immunotherapy, more effective. Researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center
Locking a biochemical gate that admits fuel into immune-suppressing cells could slow tumor progression and assist the treatment of multiple cancers, says new research from the Wistar Institute,
Before being tested in animals or humans, most cancer drugs are evaluated in tumor cells grown in a lab dish. However, in recent years, there has been a
When scientists attempt to slip big molecules, like the Cas9 enzyme that is key to CRISPR gene editing, into cells, things can get messy. One popular technique, bulk
Scientists have known for decades that caloric restriction leads to a longer lifespan. It has also been observed that chronic inflammation increases with age. But any relationship between
Cancer cells consume sugar at a higher rate than healthy cells, but they’re also hungry for amino acids, the building blocks of proteins and other biomolecules. Researchers at
Buried deep within the dazzlingly intricate machinery of the human cell could lie a key to treating a range of deadly cancers, according to a team of scientists
UCLA researchers have identified for the first time the origin of an immune cell that plays a critical role in the formation of healthy heart valves. The findings
Human beings are not the only ones who suffer from stress — even microorganisms can be affected. Now, researchers from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have devised a
DNA replication is more prone to errors at times of stress leading to mutations that could cause disease. Cells go to great lengths to keep their genomes intact.
