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.

Researchers have developed a new gene therapy that can be delivered using a nasal spray, ensuring that the therapeutic is efficiently delivered to where it is needed in the lungs and airway.

Axolotl limbs regenerate functional body parts in just weeks, relying on cells that retain positional memory. The Hand2 gene marks the posterior side of the limb and controls the activation of the Shh signaling pathway after injury.

Researchers have identified flavonoids toxic to bladder cancer cells cultured in the lab. Cell Painting technology enabled them not only to identify anticancer compounds but also to uncover insights into their mechanism of action.

Medulloblastomas are one of the most common childhood brain cancers. University of Michigan researchers have now identified a new target for Group-3 medulloblastomas. The results help identify new therapeutic avenues for treating these deadly tumors.
