Gene expression signatures in lymph node cells play an active role in lymphoma development

Researchers from the University of Tsukuba identify gene expression signatures in different types of lymph nodes cells that play an active role in the development of lymphomas.

Scientists reveal how autism-linked genetic mutation disrupts neural development using mini-brains

In a study published May 02, 2022 in Nature Communications, scientists at University of California San Diego School of Medicine used human brain organoids to reveal how a genetic mutation associated with a profound form of autism disrupts neural development.

Rutgers researcher will use genomics, cell biology to pinpoint genes involved in coral bleaching

A Rutgers researcher will use genomics, genetics, and cell biology to identify and understand the corals' response to heat stress conditions and to pinpoint master regulatory genes involved in coral bleaching due to global warming and climate change.

Researchers discover protein that enhances muscle mass

Humans are not just pumping iron in the gym, or not just oxygenating muscle cells, which keeps those muscles healthy, powerful, and developing—a process known as hypertrophy—that is defined as an increase in muscle mass, caused by an increase in muscle cell size.

Study explains how liver regeneration may help treat liver disease in mice

Other vertebrates, such as fish and lizards, can regenerate organs more effectively than mammals. Salk researchers have discovered a mechanism to partially restore the young condition of liver cells, allowing them to repair damaged tissue at a quicker rate than previously thought.

Study shows the role of mucosal-associated invariant T cell in mucosal melanomas patients

Many cancer patients have benefited from the development of anti-cancer immunotherapy drugs known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, but patients with mucosal melanomas—melanomas that occur in the mucous membranes of the head, neck, eyes, respiratory system, and genitourinary region rather than on the skin—are highly resistive to immune checkpoint inhibitors for reasons researchers do not fully understand.

New 3D in vitro model reveals the origins of human spine

The spinal column is the central supporting structure of the skeleton in all vertebrates. Not only does it provide a place for muscles to attach, it also protects the spinal cord and nerve roots. Defects in its development are known to cause rare hereditary diseases.

Understanding the regulation of intramembrane proteases across the tree of life

Working with tiny bacteria, Michigan State University researchers led by Lee Kroos have made a discovery that could have big implications for biology.

CD8 + Tscm may has protective immunity to hepatitis C virus infection

The dysfunction of memory CD8 + T cell can not be reverted by successful clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) after direct-acting antivirals (DAA) therapy, increasing the risk of reinfection with HCV.

Safety, feasibility of intranasal human milk as stem cell therapy for preterm infants with intraventricular hemorrhage

A new study demonstrates that intranasal human milk is a safe and feasible intervention for intraventricular hemorrhage, a serious cause of morbidity in preterm infants.

Researchers shed light on development and treatment of brain diseases

It is highly regulated what goes into the brain and what does not. The phagocytes that encapsulate the blood arteries in the brain and maintain the blood-brain barrier have been examined by researchers at the University of Freiburg’s Faculty of Medicine.
