New research reveals how cancer cells suppress anti-cancer immune responses in the lymph nodes to survive and spread, or metastasize.

Scientists have discovered a new type of cell, SWAT, which can transform into fat cells depending on the microenvironment.

A new study published in Zoo Biology sheds light on the immense potential of living cell banks, also known as cryobanks, to contribute to global conservation priorities.

Scientists studying gene activity data of the early human embryo have discovered an overlooked type of cell that self-destructs within days of forming, as part of a quality control process to protect the developing fetus.

Researchers have shown that the aryl hydrocarbon receptor plays a crucial role in the viral latency of HIV.

Methods of repairing the blood-brain barrier remain understudied but a recent paper describes a treatment that could be instrumental in restoring the barrier's normal function.

Researchers have used an unprecedented stem cell zoo to compare six different mammalian species and their developmental periods.

A recent study unveiled the doorway that SARS-CoV2 uses to slip inside cells undetected.

Do you feel as if you or perhaps your family members are constantly coming down with illnesses that drag on longer than they should? Or, maybe you’re one of those lucky people who rarely becomes ill and, if you do, recovers faster than others.

Genome Architecture Mapping captures complex, multi-way interactions in the genome. This is different than the workhorse technique of 3D genomics, which sees mostly two-way contacts, finds a new study by a team at the Max Delbrück Center, published in “Nature Methods”.
