New research from Professor Guillermo Ameer’s team shows how a shape change of a cell’s nucleus can trigger regenerative ...

New method developed by UTSW researchers removes mysterious organelles from stem cells and embryos to uncover their roles.

Scientists create smart cells that administer automatic treatments from inside the human body, reacting within seconds to ...

Insulin-producing human pancreas cells can be manufactured with 3D printers, researchers reported at the International Transplant Congress underway in London.

The nucleolus is where ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is transcribed, processed, and assembled into the building blocks of ribosomes, the molecular machines that make proteins. Researchers discovered that rRNA ...

Stressed DNA sets off a cascade of failures in the body linked to heart conditions, neurodegeneration, and chronic inflammation. A new, UCR-designed tool interrupts this process, preserving DNA before ...

Researchers have designed a chemical probe to bind damaged mitochondrial DNA, halting the enzymatic processes that lead to ...

Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But a critical aspect underlying the machinery of protein manufacture has long ...

Eight children were born with DNA from three people to prevent a deadly genetic disease.

Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies have revolutionized cancer treatment, yet many tumors remain resistant. Now, ...
