Cancer cells use sugar molecules on their surface to disable attacks by the body's immune system. Researchers at the University of Basel now report on how this mechanism can be neutralized.
A study published in Cell Reports reveals important insights into the molecular mechanisms that underpin the body's natural defences against the development of skin cancer.
The feeling of vibration through touch and the interactions between the inner ear and the brain have close links to the motor system. The researchers speculate these physical processes are at work in the neurological connection between music and movement.
As heart cells mature in mice, the number of communication pathways called nuclear pores dramatically decreases, according to new research from University of Pittsburgh and UPMC scientists. While this might protect the organ from damaging signals, it could also prevent adult heart cells from
Pune (Maharashtra) [India], November 7 (ANI/BusinessWire India): Peoplefy, a leading human resource solutions company founded by a team of IIT alumni and headed by talented engineers to provide quality-driven recruitment services to reputed global MNCs and top Indian companies, is proud to b
A team of researchers led by Swansea University have developed new technology to monitor cholesterol in brain tissue which could uncover its relation to neurodegenerative disease and pave the way for the development of new treatments.
More than a decade before people with Huntington's disease show symptoms, they can exhibit abnormally high levels of an immune-system molecule called interleukin-6 (IL-6), which has led many researchers to suspect IL-6 of promoting the eventual neurological devastation associated with the ge
While vaccines are one of the most powerful public health tools for protecting against infectious disease, not everybody is conferred the same level of protection. Many factors determine whether an individual responding to vaccination will generate an effective response, including specific b
