Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease in which healthy lung tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue.

STEM-engineered CAR T cells performed as well as or better against cancer cells than did FDA-approved CAR T cells and kept their cancer-fighting abilities for longer.

Mitochondrial defects are associated with the development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). Studies in mice and in human tissues, by researchers at the University of Michigan, have now found ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Targeting receptors for erythropoietin on dendritic cells may be a viable strategy for treating MS and other diseases, ...

When a cell receives a message from outside, it generates a molecule called cyclic AMP (cAMP) to relay this message. To ensure the signal reaches the correct effector without triggering pathways ...

Plants form a critical model for understanding regulated cell death (RCD) as part of their sophisticated immune responses. In the ongoing evolutionary arms ...

From small ions to large molecules, cellular gates control what can pass in and out of cells. But how one such gate, called ...
