Targeting unidentified protein reverses lymphedema: Research
Updated : 2 years, 5 months ago IST
The human lymphatic system is a huge network of tubes that drain and transfer protein-rich fluid from tissues to lymph nodes. When the machinery malfunctions and the lymphatic vessels fail to drain properly, fluid builds up in the tissues, causing painful swelling known as lymphedema.

Mineralization of bone matrix affects tumour cell growth: Research
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
Tumour cells are known to be fickle sleepers, typically lying dormant in distant tissues for years before reactivating and producing metastasis. Numerous elements, ranging from cells and molecules to other components in the so-called tissue microenvironment, have been researched to determine

In the "black box" of human development known as gastrulation, an embryo transforms from a hollow, spherical structure to a multilayered one. Human embryos are typically not cultured for longer than 14 days due to bioethical concerns, and gastrulation happens between 17 and 21 days after fer

Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Gastrulation is a "black box" of human development in which an embryo reorganises itself from a hollow spherical to a multilayered structure. Because of bioethical considerations, human embryos are normally not cultured for more than 14 days, and gastrulation occurs between 17 and 21 days po

Researchers give more insight into T cell functions
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
Researchers developed a tissue-imitating hydrogel model to show that more elastic tissues encourage T cells to develop into effector-like T cells with powerful tumor-killing potential, while more viscous tissues encourage them to develop into memory-like T cells

Study suggests new concept to understand T cell traits, functions
Updated : 2 years, 8 months ago IST
T cells encounter various mechanical cues in various tissues. In order to demonstrate that more elastic tissues encourage T cells to develop into effector-like T cells with potent tumor-killing potential, while more viscous tissues encourage them to develop into memory-like T cells, research

Updated : 2 years, 9 months ago IST
This new study focused on a subpopulation of E. coli with a specific capsule - the extracellular barrier that surrounds a bacterium - known as K1. E. coli with this form of capsule has been linked to invasive illnesses such as bloodstream or kidney infections, as well as neonatal meningitis.
