Neoantigens are unique markers that distinguish only cancer cells. By adding B cell reactivity, cancer vaccines can move ...

Over the past year, most of your body has replaced itself cell by cell. What can we learn from other animals’ dramatic feats ...

A small tweak to mitochondrial energy production led to big gains in health and longevity. Mice engineered to boost a protein that helps mitochondria work more efficiently lived longer and showed ...

Aging gracefully sounds great until real life happens and your skin, energy, and patience forget to stay on the ...

How much does life weigh? It sounds like a strange question, but to biologists it makes all the sense in the world. Yeast ...

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative computational method, called ddHodge, that can reconstruct ...

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

The results could shed light on why the animals rarely get cancer. But the researchers’ ultimate goal of bringing back woolly mammoths is still aspirational. By Carl Zimmer When the biotechnology firm ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

A trio of mRNA molecules could help guard against the harmful effects of aging on immune cells, a study in mice finds. A new ...
