Cell signalling pathways are central to maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating essential functions such as proliferation, apoptosis, and repair. In both cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, ...

Autophagy is essentially the 'rubbish collection' of our cells. If there are problems in this process, which is so important for our health, diseases such as Parkinson's can result. In their latest ...

Sepsis is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by dysregulated immune responses, systemic inflammation, and multi-organ dysfunction. It involves intricate interactions among multiple signaling ...

Within the past decade, biologists have discovered that one strategy cells use to keep their contents organized is a phenomenon known as phase separation. Similar to the way oil forms droplets that ...

For the new study, the scientists first genetically engineered mice to lack the QRICH1 protein, and conducted experiments demonstrating that the protein is necessary for the CD8 + T cell signaling ...

In several disease conditions, including infections and cancers, innate immune activation and nutrient scarcity occur together. A study from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, published in Cell, ...

A newly identified cell type in planarian flatworms can detonate itself and destroy neighboring cells in less than two ...

B cell activation and antibody class switching requires coordinated metabolic rewiring, with essential roles for amino acid transport, cholesterol metabolism, and prenylation in driving proliferation ...

• BTK inhibitors work by targeting and blocking the BTK enzyme, which is crucial for the survival and growth of cancerous B-cells in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). This cuts off the cancer cell’s support ...

A team at Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U) has uncovered a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism by which cells send signals to one another-insight that could help ...
