Cells can be thought of as cities, with factories, a transport system, and lots of building activity. An international team ...

Scientists have discovered a way to supercharge the immune system’s T cells by blocking a protein called Ant2, forcing the cells to rewire how they generate energy. This shift makes them more powerful ...

A long-standing mystery in cancer treatment is how tumor cells so often become resistant to drugs, even ones they have never encountered before.

A protein that helps cancer cells hide from the immune system may have a critical weakness, according to research that could ...

New research suggests that tubulin may help prevent the toxic protein clumps associated with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

An international team led by researchers at QUT has used artificial intelligence to create tiny "smart" proteins that switch ...

Processes such as wound healing, hair growth, and the continual renewal of cells all rely on cell division. In this process, chromosomes must be evenly distributed between two daughter cells. Even ...

A new single‑cell method, CIPHER‑seq, measures RNA and proteins together to reveal real‑time cytokine signaling.

A growing body of research suggests astrocytes, star-shaped brain cells once dismissed as support players, may lead the way ...
