In collaboration with researchers in South Korea, a team from The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) has discovered a ...

When cells experience enough chronic stress, they can stop dividing permanently. In this state of cellular limbo, known as ...

Microtubules are dynamic, tubular polymers composed of αβ-tubulin dimers that form an essential framework within eukaryotic cells. They orchestrate a wide range of cellular functions including ...

In the rapidly evolving field of drug discovery, single-cell analysis has become an invaluable tool for understanding cellular heterogeneity and molecular pathways. However, traditional single-cell ...

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have discovered how tumors disable immune "gatekeeper" cells that alert the ...

Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...

Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

Now, in a study published March 30 in Cell Chemical Biology, UB scientists have shed light on one such stressor, showing that ...

When people think about health, they often focus on specific organs like the heart or brain. But many changes related to chronic conditions or ageing begin in the smallest units of your body — your ...

A team of researchers led by Dr. Kim V. Narry, director of the Center for RNA Research at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of ...

The human body is made up of trillions of cells that perform functions from skin protection to muscle movement. Cells can ...

In a major advance applying insights from quantum physics to the inner workings of biology, a team of WashU researchers has ...
