Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Cells that are about to die send a signal to an executioner protein, but sometimes, those cells can fight back and regenerate ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with various chronic diseases and cancers, including neurodegenerative diseases and ...

Stem Cell Reports, the peer-reviewed, open-access journal of the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR), today ...

Until now, cells dividing by mitosis were thought to grow round and then split into two identical, spherical daughter cells. New research has found that some cells are isomorphic, meaning they retain ...

Using AI, scientists have built a “GPS” for cancer-fighting immune cells. It’s a molecular navigation system that helped the cells lock onto cancer, kind of like Google Maps guiding travelers to a new ...

When a T cell encounters a cell carrying pieces of a virus or bacteria, the two form a tight contact point known as an immune ...

Seattle’s Allen Institute will play a key role in a groundbreaking space mission this weekend. The Allen Institute for Cell Science is providing stem cells that will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 ...

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...

It’s no secret that teenagers love snacks, whether salty or sweet. At West Mesquite High School, AP biology teacher Melinda Evans is using that love of snacks to help her students understand how cells ...

Creating human eggs from adult cells just got one step closer to reality. A technique used in cloning combined with fertilization and a bit of chemical coaxing caused human skin cells to produce eggs ...
