Researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison have built a cross-species atlas of gene regulatory networks governing ...

Researchers have uncovered new evidence about how barrier-forming cells protect and nourish the brain Senescent, or “old-like,” cells have been associated with aging and disease, but the new findings ...

Newswise — How readily a cell divides and how well it survives is fundamental to life, shaping everything from organ size to the body’s ability to withstand disease. That combination, known as cell ...

A Dartmouth study published in Nature Communications reveals that immune cells in the brain use a surprising two-step process to power their search-and-destroy missions. When immune cells rush to ...

A 1940s experiment put a cat on a cow and popped paper bags to show that fear blocks milk letdown. The hormone link still matters for nursing parents. Physician William Bean marked his thumbnail ...

Researchers at SUNY Upstate Medical University have resolved a long-standing neurobiology puzzle: how the central nervous system gauges axon diameter to control myelin sheath length. The study reveals ...

Repeated physical activity builds endurance by triggering widespread adaptations throughout the human body, but a new study ...

How readily a cell divides and how well it survives are fundamental to life, shaping everything from organ size to the body's ability to withstand disease. That combination, known as cell fitness, isn ...

UCLA researchers grew brain cells from dozens of genetically distinct donors together in a cell village, then built a statistical tool called Townlet to measure each donor's cell fitness — how well ...
