Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed two powerful computational tools that could transform how researchers ...

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

Embryos and the uterus exchange molecular signals within the first hour, shaping whether implantation succeeds or fails.

From the moment an embryo starts to take shape, two-way communication is critical for making sure tissues and organs develop ...

Animal bodies are crackling with electrical signals. Even before development is complete, electric fields guide the movement and arrangement of embryonic cells. 1 In adults, neurons communicate with ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — In the march of metastasis, a molecular trail of crumbs guides some cancer cells from the primary tumor to establish new colonies within the body. Blocking the cells’ ability to ...

A hidden “jack-in-the-box” mechanism inside T cells may hold the key to unlocking more powerful cancer immunotherapies.

Profiling cells from ovarian endometriosis revealed signaling interactions that may sustain lesion growth, highlighting potential therapeutic targets. “This [study] represents an important advance in ...

Inside every living cell, tiny molecular machines are constantly in motion, shifting shapes, tugging on membranes and ...

Mayo Clinic researchers have uncovered how aging "zombie cells" trigger harmful inflammation that accelerates a severe and ...
