When the researchers boosted production of one of these transcription factors in the liver cells of elderly mice, they ...
After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...
Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at ...
The field of cancer immunotherapy has achieved remarkable progress, introducing strategies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and adoptive cell therapies ...
Introduction: The discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) revolutionized the field of translational medicine by enabling the reprogramming of adult somatic cells into a pluripotent state.
Using a blend of computer modeling, structural and cell-based studies, scientists at The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute have designed a group of potential diabetes drugs that reprogram ...
Gram-stained section of a macrophage with ingested S epidermidis bacteria, seen as purple granules within its cytoplasm. In this stain, the nucleus appears pale, with a reddish nucleolus. It is ...
Atomic defects in nanodiamonds enable both precise heating of lysosomes inside macrophages and nanoscale temperature measurement, revealing that localized thermal spikes trigger immune cell ...
As people age, their immune system function declines. T cell populations become smaller and can't react to pathogens as quickly, making people more susceptible to a variety of infections. To try to ...
