Signal transduction and gene regulation are at the heart of cell and developmental biology, driving cell fate decisions and tissue homeostasis. In cancer, ...
A new study has demonstrated that colon cancer cells may change identity to metastasize. Loss of GATA6, a transcription factor that controls which genes are turned on or off, can reprogram colorectal ...
A new study suggests low-intensity ultrasound can influence immune cell behavior in ways that may reduce chronic inflammation ...
Hypertrophic scars (HS) are abnormal outcomes of wound healing, marked by excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition and ...
Engineers from the University of Houston, MIT and Harvard have developed a new mRNA-based strategy that dramatically amplifies the T-cell response to vaccines — an advance that could lead to far more ...
Cancer cells can disarm the immune system not just by hiding from it, but by actively reprogramming nearby immune cells into a suppressed state. This previously unrecognized molecular interaction, ...
A couple decades ago, stealing a car was often a matter of finding a way in, twisting some wires together, and hoping nobody noticed. According to federal prosecutors, a recently busted auto theft ...
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have discovered how tumors disable immune "gatekeeper" cells that alert the rest of the immune system to the presence of cancer—and how restoring their ...
Cancer Res (2026) 86 (7_Supplement): 6127. Liver metastasis is a major cause of mortality in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), but the organ-specific cues that enable metastatic colonization are poorly ...
The most common side effects of mRNA vaccines like the COVID-19 shot are well known: soreness, mild fever, and general malaise. Those symptoms, which typically resolve within days, are the natural ...
Victoria Police is grappling with the increased use of key reprogramming devices in car thefts across the state. The devices, designed for mechanics to unlock cars, are now used in up to 40 per cent ...
Brain fog can be scary. It might appear innocently, like losing your car keys or forgetting what date you scheduled that appointment on. Some of this memory loss is normal—it’s just a natural side ...
