Cell phone video captured passengers scrambling out of a charter bus that crashed into six vehicles, killing at least five, among them children, in Virginia early on Friday. Forty-four others are injured, with at least one in critical condition.…
Long Cai and collaborators showed that a single tissue image can reveal how cells coordinate over weeks of development, uncovering an intrinsic clock in the support cells that help organize this process.
CAR T-cell therapy has been hugely successful in treating certain types of tumours, and stiffening up cancer cells beforehand could make it even more effective
The cost of CAR T-cell therapy means that the highly effective cancer treatment is unavailable in many parts of the world. But a new way of making these cells could dramatically drive down the cost
Vercel’s low-level untrusted and ephemeral compute platform is designed to give us the control needed to securely and efficiently manage and run builds.
As blood stem cells age, their lysosomes become overactive and damaged, triggering inflammation and weakening the body’s ability to regenerate healthy blood and immune cells.…
The ability of animals to efficiently track down and digest food is crucial for their survival, and the specialization to different diets is a major driver of diversification in this group1–3.…
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype that is frequently treated with chemotherapy, but only half of the patients respond well and have good clinical outcome1,2.…
The cerebral cortex shows species-specific variations in size and organization, which probably account for distinct behavioural abilities1. These structural differences may reflect evolutionary changes in the developmental expression of shared genes.…
Mammalian reproduction requires substantial immune adaptations to safeguard reproductive success and to ultimately shape the evolutionary trajectories of a species.…
Stem cells are the original cell type from which all other cells and tissues in the body develop through a very tightly regulated process. However, how stem cells differentiate in addition to gene-control systems, such as canonical REST repression, which…
Researchers in Singapore have published a review mapping the country’s recent contributions to biofabrication and biomanufacturing, from waste-derived biomaterials and 3D bioprinting to cultivated food, regenerative medicine, microneedles, and…
