In some mammals, the timing of the normally continuous embryonic development can be altered to improve the chances of survival for both the embryo and the mother. This mechanism to temporarily slow ...

Deep in our cells, a wide range of processes are occurring constantly. These cellular processes rely on enzymes to act as catalysts and set off a series of molecular interactions. There are still many ...

A research team has conducted a study exploring the role of the mannose pathway in regulating cell fate decisions in low glucose environments. Their work may hold potential for novel therapeutic ...

After more than a decade of research, scientists have discovered the natural mechanism behind a novel form of cell death ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) are among the first immune sentinels to detect viruses, bacteria, or other challenges. These specialized messengers alert T cells while orchestrating either a measured calm or a ...

A recent study published in the journal Frontiers in Endocrinology investigated the role of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase 42E member 1 (SDR42E1) enzyme in regulating sterol metabolism and ...

Pasca Lab specializes in growing three-dimensional organoid models from reprogrammed stem cells, which capture molecular changes during fetal brain-like development. Because the human brain cannot be ...

Immunotherapy has transformed cancer care, offering a way to harness the body’s own immune system to fight tumors. But even with these advances, many patients still don’t respond. One major barrier to ...
