A recent research has identified a unique genetic signature among subsets of infiltrating T cells of different types of cancer after analyzing data from a public repository, CD4-T, CD8-T cells, and Treg.
Study revealed a unique mechanism that promotes cancer cell spread, as well as providing a foundation for future research that may eventually lead to the discovery of possible new targets to combat cancer metastasis.
A team of Canadian researchers from Universite de Montreal has designed and validated a new class of drug transporters made of DNA that are 20,000 times smaller than a human hair and that could improve how cancers and other diseases are treated
The platform, described in a new paper in the journal ACS Infectious Diseases, could help to address the ongoing antibiotic resistance crisis, say the scientists. They modified and then tested red blood cells as a carrier for one of the world's only remaining resistance-proof antibiotics: Po
Stake out in Pennsylvania's Cook State Forest at the right time of year and you can see one of nature's great light shows: swarms of fireflies that synchronize their flashes like strings of Christmas lights in the dark.
Social behavior is a complex phenomenon involving many parts of the brain. Researchers found that gut microorganisms cut out excess connections in brain circuits for social development.
Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have developed a computational method to map the architecture of human tissues in unprecedented detail. Their approach promises to accelerate studies on organ-scale cellular interactions and could enable powerful new diagnostic strategies for a wide range o
Finding cancer-related indicators is a highly effective method for determining diagnosis, prognosis, and response to treatment. These markers may now be found in patient samples like blood and urine thanks to modern technology, offering a non-invasive way to monitor and assess patients.
The diverse functions of immune cells in the body are extremely rigorously controlled in order to combat infections. How Toxoplasma infects so many people and animal species and spreads so quickly has long been a mystery to scientists.
Huntington's disease, a fatal, inherited neurodegenerative condition, is caused by a genetic error present at birth, though its symptoms often don't begin until middle adulthood. Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have been trying to understand how the ageing
