In a trailblazing advancement in cancer therapy, researchers at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed a technology that transforms colon cancer cells into ...

A new treatment may be in sight for stroke patients after scientists successfully reprogrammed immune cells to replace damaged brain cells and restore brain function after stroke-like injury. Every ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection is known to convert resting B lymphocytes into immortal cells that continuously multiply, leading to posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). Researchers ...

Researchers developed a novel reporting system called the "EndoMT reporter endothelial cells," or EMRECs, to visualize the intermediate phases of EndoMT. Using RNA-sequencing and gene expression ...

Membrane fusion and budding mediate fundamental biological processes like intracellular trafficking, exocytosis, and endocytosis. For many decades, fusion has been thought to open a nanometer-range ...

You are the product of metamorphosis. During the third week of your embryonic existence, fateful genetic choices were made that began to transform a tiny ball of identical stem cells into a complex ...

CD19-targeted CAR T-cell therapy shows a 65% response rate in Richter transformation, with median progression-free survival of 8 months and overall survival of 14.4 months. Early response and age are ...

Manipulating stem cells is one of the hardest tasks one might choose to do in a laboratory. First, they are very hard to come by, second, they tend to die if not stimulated to grow, and third, like ...

At this stage, known as gastrulation, a flat and featureless sheet of cells folds into a living blueprint for the body, a fleeting transformation into axes and layers that will determine how every ...
