Each cell has their own genetic code that helps maintain viability and directs function. This genetic code is commonly referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. DNA is the molecule that carries ...

Cardiovascular diseases, including stroke and myocardial infarction, are the world's leading causes of mortality, accounting for more than 18 million deaths a year. A team of KIT researchers has now ...

Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin have created a data science framework to better understand how cells travel through the body. The researchers ...

Sensory cells and neurons in the ear communicate by secreting neurotransmitters in response to sound stimuli. Scientists of the University Medical Center Göttingen, the Cluster of Excellence ...

Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move. Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical ...

Every cell in your body is wrapped in a dense, invisible shell made of sugar molecules. Not table sugar, but complex chains of carbohydrates called glycans that bristle outward from the cell surface ...

UCSF scientists have developed a "molecular GPS" to guide immune cells into the brain and kill tumors without harming healthy tissue. It is the first living cell therapy that can navigate through the ...

With a flexible, no-equipment-needed platform, ChBE researchers are creating a new way to test for disease at home or anywhere medical resources are limited. The team's modular cell-free protein ...
