Integrating blood vessels into organoids could allow them to surpass current size limits while making them more useful as biological models.

Researchers have identified two antiviral drug candidates effective against a wide range of viruses. The study demonstrates how combining computer-aided modeling with laboratory validation can speed up the development of new antiviral drugs.

Scientists at UC San Francisco have discovered how pancreatic cancer cells thrive in the lungs or liver, environments that are as distinct to cells as the ocean and desert are to animals.

A new study has shown that old neurons have unique defects from molecular stress that make them vulnerable to neurodegeneration.

A new method for targeted drug delivery uses chemically tagged platelets, offering fast, efficient treatment with minimal long-term drug presence.

This article explores some of the reasons animal models are used in neuroscience and how this could change in the future.

A study led by University of Cincinnati Cancer Center researchers sheds new light on the mechanisms by which a major oncogene promotes and sustains lymphoma development and progression, paving the way for novel targeted therapies.

Learn how CD34+ stem cells may help heart attack patients recover. A look at cutting-edge cell therapies and what's coming next in cardiac care.

A new study reveals the Zika virus’s infectious success: Zika uses host cells’ own “self-care” system of clearing away useless molecules to suppress the host proteins that the virus has employed to get into those cells in the first place.

Researchers have developed the first vascularized organoid model of pancreatic islet cells, which promises to improve diabetes research and cell-based therapies.
