Researchers have developed a new way to diagnose telomere abnormalities in less than three hours, using samples from low amounts of DNA.

Scientists think that asthma results from the behavior of unhealthy cells within the human airway. But now, researchers at Northeastern have found that the way those cells trigger asthmatic attacks isn’t only a result of how they communicate with one another.

Using a technique called single-cell RNA sequencing, a research team from the University of Michigan was able to show for the first time how individual cells within a single population of cancer cells respond differently to the DNA damage caused by chemotherapy.

In a new study, researchers discovered that the mechanisms involved in the transfer and disposal of misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum are different to what was previously thought.

A congenital disorder of fat metabolism can cause chronic hyperreaction of the immune system, according to researchers.

Researchers have identified an important mechanism that can be used to control the restoration of myelin sheaths following traumatic injury and in degenerative diseases.

Scientists find that a congenital disorder of the fat metabolism can apparently cause chronic hyper-reaction of the immune system, a previously unknown disease mechanism.

A chameleonlike protein in neurons can change its mind, and in the process change our brains.

Large animals, such as pigs, with ailing livers can grow a new organ in their lymph nodes from their own hepatocytes, a new study has shown.

Researchers have discovered a novel molecular mechanism that regulates the differentiation of intestinal stem cells.
