In Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, a protein called tau can pile up inside brain cells and form toxic clumps. Those ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

In a recent study, researchers manipulated cellular proteins that control genes in aged mice. Experimental results showed their livers were rejuvenated to younger states. This work shows promise as a ...

Researchers in the College of Agriculture, Health and Natural Resources have developed a novel line of bovine embryonic stem ...

Scientists at Rutgers University–Newark have developed a first-of-its-kind RNA-based nanotechnology that assembles itself inside living human cells and can be programmed to stop propagation of harmful ...

Unlike virtually every other cell in the human body, the syncytiotrophoblast doesn't have a single nucleus. It has roughly 10 ...

New study shows how bacteria adapted a virus-derived injection system to recognize and attach to many different types of ...

It’s been spruiked as everything from cutting-edge science to an unethical wasteland masquerading as healthcare.

A UBC-led team of researchers has discovered two chemical compounds with potent and wide-ranging antiviral activity that ...

Brain cells that promote tumor expansion for aggressive cancers such as glioblastoma can be “flipped” to instead inhibit that ...

Colorectal cancer has long baffled scientists because, unlike most tumors, patients often do better when their cancers are ...
