When cells are about to die, they send signals that trigger proteins which are supposed to destroy them, but it doesn’t always happen that way. Some cells activate the signal but then resist the ...

Our bodies divest themselves of 60 billion cells every day through a natural process of cell culling and turnover called apoptosis. These cells - mainly blood and gut cells - are all replaced with new ...

Laboratory experiments with cancer cells reveal two ways in which tumors evade drugs designed to starve and kill them, a study shows. Laboratory experiments with cancer cells reveal two ways in which ...

Programmed cell death (PCD) stands at the forefront of innovation in experimental pharmacology and drug discovery, providing fundamental insights into ...

Immunometabolism has emerged as a central hub linking infection, inflammation, cell death, and cancer. The metabolic state of cells profoundly shapes their ...

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in ACS Nano, how proteins in cells can be controllably activated through heating, an effect that can be used ...
