How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles. Now, ...

In the present study, we review approaches and studies that have shed some light on cardiomyocyte cell cycle regulation. For reference, an initial description of cardiomyogenic induction and ...

Cells are the smallest units of life. But even within the same tissue or organ, they are not all identical. New variations arise continuously during cell proliferation. While genetic mutations alter ...

Stem cell therapy is an emerging treatment for type 2 diabetes. Although it’s not yet FDA-approved in the United States, it is a rapidly expanding and promising field of research. Stem cells are ...

Vor Bio is the latest cell therapy company to reach the end of the road. The biotech is immediately winding down clinical and manufacturing operations and laying off almost all staff. Around 95% ...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting CD19 have transformed the treatment of B-cell cancers, but many patients do not have long-term remission. We designed an anti-CD19 enhanced ...

In other words, these new results provide evidence for an ancient carbon cycle on Mars. Carbon cycles are the processes that transfer carbon dioxide between different reservoirs − such as rocks ...

As it applies to the development of cell therapies, AstraZeneca’s chief of global operations, Pam Cheng, admits that the company is a “little late to join the party.” But just because AZ has ...

“Will the cycle eventually catch up to patients who have gone through CAR T-cell therapy? Does innate immune dysfunction disappear with CAR T or BiTE? Interferon responses and long-term ...

A new study challenges a widely-held notion about cell division. © screenshot from a video by The University of Manchester, with photo editing by Gizmodo If you took ...

“After we eat and the fat cell is full, it releases leptin, which travels to the brain, tells the brain we’re satiated and we should stop eating, and tells the brain to release hormones that ...

to keep a complex organism like humans alive, an immense number of new cells must be continuously produced. Up close, each of these cell divisions is nothing short of a ...
