Researchers have made significant advances in solving some of the most vexing challenges in bioprinting 3D-engineered tissues while meeting the key requirements of high cell density, high cell viability and fine fabrication resolution.

A research team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences has uncovered the molecular basis of the ultrafast movement of Spirostomum protists.

Although individual PFAS are known to increase the risk of several types of disease, this study, is the first to evaluate which biological processes are altered by exposure to a combination of multiple PFAS, which is important because most people carry a mixture of the chemicals in their blood.

Elevated levels of air pollutants are associated with bone damage among postmenopausal women, according to new research. The effects were most evident on the lumbar spine, with nitrous oxides twice as damaging to the area than seen with normal aging.

Mapping specialized receptors on the mosquito nerve cells in antennae may help researchers understand why the insects may be more attracted to one human than another.

New research suggests that naked mole-rats produce eggs throughout their lives, challenging the dogma that female mammals have a finite ovarian reserve.

Telomeres were once thought to be incapable of encoding proteins, but new research has indicated this is not the case by discovering that the telomeric DNA can produce two small proteins.

A research team has found that Cspg4^high microglia is a new cell source for microgliosis in neurodegeneration, and unraveled the molecular characteristics and functions of Cspg4^high microglia which showed high capability of cell proliferation in neurodegenerative diseases.

In a first-of-its-kind study, EMBL researchers have shown how DNA methylation across the genome contributes to the precise regulation of gene expression

A toxic protein called DUX4 has been identified as a potential cause of two very different rare genetic disorders.
