Researchers at IRB Barcelona discover that vitamin B12 significantly boosts the efficiency of cellular reprogramming, thus holding promise for regenerative medicine.

Cells contain molecular machinery that targets and disposes of unwanted proteins. Scientists would like to hijack this process to control proteins involved in cancer and other diseases, using a type of molecule called a molecular glue degrader.

A new MIT study proposes a theoretical model that helps explain how cellular memory is passed from generation to generation when cells divide.

Researchers have discovered previously unknown changes in a specific type of liver cells, potentially opening avenues for a new treatment for liver fibrosis, a potentially life-threatening condition.

Traditional bone marrow aspirate (BMA) stem cell extraction methods are complex, time-consuming, and yield poor results due to antiquated centrifugation techniques.

A lesser-known DNA repair pathway that is upregulated in breast, ovarian and prostate cancer has been pieced together and laid out step by step in a new paper.

Researchers developed an improved method to study Parkinson’s disease in the lab. Along the way, researchers also uncovered clues that may help scientists figure out how to detect Parkinson’s earlier and point the way toward better treatments.

Macrophages, a type of white blood cell that can destroy invading pathogens, have an innate ability to infiltrate tumor cells, making them a potentially important tool in treatments that use transplanted cells to fight disease, known as cell therapy.

Physical activities in the morning, associated with daily patterns of sleep/wake cycle, convey timing information from the light-sensitive central clock in the brain to the weight-bearing skeletal tissues.

For the first time, researchers have succeeded in printing a robotic hand with bones, ligaments and tendons made of different polymers using a new laser scanning technique.
