New research led by the University of Bristol has found the protein p53 plays a key role in epithelial migration and tissue repair.

An enzyme naturally present in the body is able to impair SARS-CoV-2 reproduction by mutating the virus.

Dahiana Arcila is studying how fish, like pufferfish, boxfish, ocean sunfish and other relatives have evolved to develop their distinct physical traits.

Changes to the chemical composition of saliva caused by COVID-19 can be identified by Raman spectroscopy that, when used in combination with machine learning, can be used to accurately detect SARS-CoV-2.

Previous studies have shown how fasting can influence the immune system to improve different chronic inflammatory conditions, but little was known about how immune responses might determine a healthy metabolism, until now.

Intracellular bacteria are able to evade the immune response by infecting macrophages, triggering the death of the host cell, then using it as a shield to avoid the antimicrobial action of other immune cells.

Research has led to the discovery of a pH-induced structural mechanism of membrane remodeling caused by the protein MakA, a subunit of a toxin from the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio cholerae.

According to research, culture environments of different cell types growing in culture vessels or Petri dishes vary significantly from each other and from conditions in the living body.

Researchers have clarified what immune cells are present in the lungs in the first days of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and what some of those cells are doing to fight off the virus.

Researchers have detailed how light energy initiates the cell membrane-based pumping process, and how nature made sure there is no anion leakage back outside.
