American researchers have observed the process of cell self-destruction, or apoptosis, gaining insights into its velocity—an ...

In a new study, researchers have identified a way to stop cells from dying, opening the door to developing treatments that slow the progression of neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson’s disease ...

Cancer immunotherapies often rely on activating immune responses, yet many tumors remain resistant because their internal survival mechanisms are poorly understood.

Scientists looking for new ways to tackle hard-to-treat breast cancers turned to an unexpected source: Munronia henryi, a plant known for producing limonoids, a family of complex natural compounds ...

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a tightly regulated biological process necessary for normal tissue maintenance and development. However, aberrations in apoptotic signaling networks are ...

Intermittent fasting has proven benefits for metabolic health, but a new study shows that it could slow hair growth in mice by inhibiting hair follicle regeneration. A research team headed by ...

Cellular injury entails disruptions in a cell's structure or function triggered by factors such as physical trauma, chemical exposure, infectious agents, and oxidative stress. These alterations may ...

After more than a decade of research, scientists have discovered the natural mechanism behind a novel form of cell death called ferroptosis. The work, described in the current issue of Cell, points ...

Spinal cord injury often triggers a cascade of secondary damage that severely limits functional recovery, largely driven by ...
