A new tool greatly improves scientists' ability to identify and study proteins that regulate gene activity in cells, ...

A research team has discovered a mechanism in which blood stem cells respond to acute, severe anemia, through lipoprotein metabolism modification. It has been known how immediate erythroid precursors ...

The amount of any given protein in a cell has to be controlled to keep its levels within a range required for healthy ...

New research by scientists at the Champalimaud Foundation has revealed a surprising new role for the immune system. Their study in mice found that during periods of low energy— such as intermittent ...

In living cells, regulation of the electrochemical environment is supposed to be managed by ion channels—protein complexes that reside in cell membranes and assume definite shapes. So, it’s surprising ...

Researchers create a magnetic nanoscale system that reversibly switches groove and ridge structures to regulate stem cell adhesion and differentiation. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Tissue regeneration depends ...

Researchers at Duke University have shown that blocking an enzyme involved in iron regulation not only kills multiple myeloma ...

Cancer cells are relentless in their quest to grow and divide, often rewiring their metabolism and modifying RNA to stay one step ahead. Now, researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive ...
