Researchers have discovered a new type of neuron that plays a fundamental role in recognition memory -- how the brain registers the difference between new and familiar objects and forms long-term ...

UNIGE Scientists have discovered an enzyme in cancerous lymphatic cells whose properties enable the immune system to fight tumours more effectively.

This important study demonstrates the potential of synthetic gene circuits to detect and target aberrant RAS activity in cancer cell lines. The circuit design is novel and the evidence supporting the ...

These drugs, discovered decades ago, continue to save lives today, but more recent research has led to the development of ...

Due to proteostasis stress induced by aging or disease, misfolded proteins can form toxic intermediate species of aggregates and eventually mature into less toxic inclusion bodies (IBs). Here, using a ...

R esearchers have developed a way to grow human-sized tooth-like tissues in the mouths of pigs – this may be a lot to chew on ...

Scientists have translated nanoscale experimental and computational data into precise 3D representations of bacteria, yeast ...

In patient-derived and animal tumour models, mubritinib suppressed glioblastoma stem cells and tumour growth by targeting ...

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), which include ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), are chronic conditions ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more resilient to significant structural changes than was previously thought.
