Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

How do immune cells strike a balance, unleashing rapid attacks against pathogens or cancer, while avoiding damage to healthy cells? Research into an immune kill switch holds potential for controlling ...

A new study reveals that age-related changes in the gut microbiota directly impair intestinal stem cell (ISC) function and that restoring a youthful microbial environment can reverse this decline.

Stanford University-led researchers report that tumor cells hijack mitochondria from immune cells, reducing anti-tumor immune ...

Cells that are about to die send a signal to an executioner protein, but sometimes, those cells can fight back and regenerate ...
