Peptide-based molecules have increasingly been positioned not merely as isolated biochemical entities, but as conceptual instruments through which ...

Research suggests that consciousness could extend far beyond just humans—every cellular creature in the universe, no matter how big or small, could be conscious, too. Studies show that single-cell ...

How do blood vessels stay strong, flexible, and responsive to the body's changing need for oxygen and nutrients? The answer lies not only in biology—but also in physics. Researchers at Åbo Akademi ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have revealed that cells use a previously unknown feat of molecular craftsmanship to help protect their larger host organisms. The building blocks required ...

In recent years, scientists have discovered that some chemotherapy drugs not only kill cancer cells directly, but at least in some patients, mysteriously also trigger their immune system to attack the ...

Scientists from VIB, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Saarland University, and  RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau have discovered that an important family of antioxidant enzymes can assemble in far ...

Until now, conventional 3D cell cultures have often been either too rigid or too unstable to realistically reproduce the ...

In a recently published review, a research team led by MedUni Vienna has highlighted a promising new approach to drug discovery. The focus is on the targeted modulation of certain intracellular ...

Growing neurons rely on chemical cues to find their targets, but new research shows that the brain’s physical properties help ...

A hidden molecular chain reaction in the brain may push key cellular systems into overdrive in autism—and scientists just found a way to switch it off.

West Feliciana High School AP biology students are studying cell signaling pathways by comparing effectiveness of commercial rooting gel and natural plant hormones by observing the rate of callus and ...
