In certain contexts, the Notch receptor may participate in “reverse signaling,” influencing neighboring cells directly.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are among the first immune sentinels to detect viruses, bacteria, or other challenges. These specialized messengers alert T cells while orchestrating either a measured calm or a ...

"The DNA inside our cells is constantly experiencing damage, and DNA repair is happening all the time to fix that damage and keep our cells healthy. Now, however, it seems these repair processes can ...

Why do two people with the same cancer diagnosis—the same stage, the same cell type, and the same clinical profile—often have ...

Initially, cells are dissociated from liver tissues into single-cell suspensions using in vivo enzymatic perfusion or ex vivo digestion methods. The cells of interest are then enriched from the ...

MIT engineers have developed a new way to amplify the T-cell response to mRNA vaccines—an advance that could lead to much ...

Researchers at the University of Houston are pushing the boundaries of biomedical innovation with a discovery that could transform treatment for one of cancer's most devastating complications. In a ...

An international study led by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers identifies a lung cell specific means of modulating and possibly preventing allergic, asthma-related airway inflammation: ...

Apoptosis is a process in which cells die off, intentionally. This programmed cell death pathway helps eliminate billions of cells every day, most of which are blood or gut cells, so they can be ...
