Scientists at Washington University in St. Louis have engineered brain cells to hunt and destroy amyloid plaques, cutting toxic buildup by roughly half in aged mice with advanced Alzheimer’s-like ...

Sickle cell disease is often thought of solely as a blood disorder, but new research from the Wood Neuro Research Group ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

It's common knowledge that our brains—and, specifically, our brain cells—store memories. But a team of scientists has discovered that cells from other parts of the body also perform a memory function, ...

A mutation in the TDP-43 protein reduces the viability of motor neurons without triggering protein clumps, researchers found.

A recent study suggests that memories aren’t just stored in the brain, raising important questions about cognition.

Neuroblastoma (NB), the most prevalent extracranial solid tumor in children, poses a significant therapeutic challenge due to its metastasis and high heterogeneity. A recent study leveraging ...

Laboratory experiments with cancer cells reveal two ways in which tumors evade drugs designed to starve and kill them, a new study shows. While chemotherapies successfully treat cancers and extend ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have discovered that regulatory T (Treg) cells, a type of white blood cell, exist as a single large population of cells that constantly move throughout the ...

CD25 expression has long been recognized as an adverse prognostic marker in acute leukemias including acute myeloid leukemia ...
