Vaccines work by equipping our immune systems to fight an invading virus. When we get vaccinated against COVID-19, specialized immune cells known as B cells learn to recognize the virus. If we ...

The problem of cell type became clear to genome biologist Jason Buenrostro in 2013. He was studying a cell line derived from someone with cancer, trying to map out how the DNA was arranged in the ...

Now, an international team of mathematicians has discovered a new class of shapes capable of tiling with a minimal amount of sharp corners, which they define as “soft cells.” Their findings ...

It “opens up a complete new avenue [to rescue] this magnificent species and icon of conservation,” and may suggest strategies for generating stem cells for other vulnerable and endangered species.

or what Khoshakhlagh calls “the genetic master knobs,” which act in concert to program cells to become a specialized cell type. The biotech is shortcutting the entire process, a streamlining ...

A new study has shed light on the challenges of converting one type of specialized cell into another, a process critical for advances in regenerative medicine. Despite recent progress in the field ...

Modulating intake of dietary lipids could open up an avenue for treatment. Cancer cells seldom start off stealthy. Quite to the contrary, they announce their presence to the immune system by ...
