A new study has uncovered how an exceptionally scarce protein can orchestrate the assembly of large-scale gene-silencing structures inside cells, and what happens when that process breaks down. The ...

Until now, conventional 3D cell cultures have often been either too rigid or too unstable to realistically reproduce the ...

A group of natural compounds attracting attention for their anti-aging potential has a dark side. New research shows how a ...

Better mRNA release inside cells boosts vaccine and gene editing performance, enabled by redesigned lipid molecules that grip ...

A few years ago, researchers developed a novel treatment that seemed to repair tissue and spinal cord injuries. These so-called dancing molecules have now been applied to human cartilage cells, and ...

Research Compounds Scientists Study for Brain Function and Cognitive Performance Modern neuroscience research continues ...

Multiphoton microscopy is used in biomedical research to study cells and tissues. Today, so-called two-photon microscopy is used to study processes within cells, but the technique has limitations in ...

Can eating fat be good for us? Some fatty acid molecules actually play a crucial role in maintaining our health and cellular functions. By the early twentieth century, scientists and doctors widely ...

New research shows smoking changes how key eye cells control genes, helping explain why smokers face a much higher risk of ...

A new study describes a technique that rejuvenates aging blood-forming stem cells and could help reduce the risk of age-related blood disorders.

When cell samples stained with these molecules are examined using two-photon microscopy, the molecules behave as if they were ...
