Cells constantly probe their environments, searching for physical cues that guide their behavior. And yet a cell's response ...

Goal Is to Optimize Growth Conditions for Sustaining High Productivity in Culture Maintaining cell lines in culture, under optimal growth conditions, is essential for production of many biological ...

A new method developed at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions allows researchers to better understand ...

A cell's identity is based on the genes it expresses, and scientists have been studying gene expression mechanisms for many years. But the process involves molecules that are too small to see, until ...

Scientists have transformed RNA, a biological molecule present in all living cells, into a biosensor that can detect tiny chemicals relevant to human health. Research by scientists centers on RNA, a ...

Strokes lead to irreversible damage to the brain and are one of the most common causes of dependency or death. As the cellular reactions to a cerebral infarction are not yet fully understood, there ...

Emily Whitehead made the history books in 2012 when she become the first pediatric patient with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia to be given a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. After ...

Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical energy through constant motion in their membranes, offering a fresh way to think ...
