RNA was long considered DNA’s boring biochemical relative. Researchers thought it merely takes the genetic information stored ...

Machine learning is helping neuroscientists organize vast quantities of cells’ genetic data in the latest neurobiological cartography effort.

Researchers uncover a redox-regulated mechanism that determines whether bone fractures heal or progress to non-union.

Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

As we age, our cells don’t just wear down—they reorganize. Researchers found that cells actively remodel a key structure called the endoplasmic reticulum, reducing protein-producing regions while ...

Improvements in public health have allowed humankind to survive to older ages than ever before, but, for many people, these ...

Explore the vital role of bone marrow stem cells. Learn how they drive bone remodeling, immunity, and skeletal health in this complete guide.

Cells organize their molecules into distinct functional areas. While textbooks usually refer to membrane-bound organelles ...

Among modern cancer therapies, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are among the most successful treatment methods. These antibodies activate the immune system and enable T cells to detect and destroy ...

In its effort to correlate genomic structure with gene function, the 4D Nucleome Consortium (4DN), led by Job Dekker, Ph.D., at UMass Chan Medical School, has extensively mapped and analyzed the three ...
