Colorectal cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, largely due to metastasis and ...

A joint research team from POSTECH and Inha University researchers has successfully developed a novel biomaterial that overcomes the limitations of natural elastin. Our bodies contain a special ...

A protein already targeted by FDA-approved cancer drugs may also help the body fight influenza, according to new research ...

Intracellular peptides, generated predominantly via the ubiquitin–proteasome system, have emerged as critical modulators of cell signalling. These peptides play multifaceted roles, ranging from ...

A research team led by Sahand Jamal Rahi at EPFL’s Laboratory of the Physics of Biological Systems has introduced a new ...

Researchers have created a method called optovolution that uses light to guide the evolution of proteins with dynamic behaviors. By engineering yeast cells so their survival depended on proteins ...

In a recently published review, a research team led by MedUni Vienna has highlighted a promising new approach to drug ...

T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on exquisitely timed molecular signals. Now researchers have captured one of the ...

Large protein machines in the body carry out many of the cell's most essential tasks, from energy production to the ...

Cancer-fighting T cells do not simply "run out of energy." They are molecularly reprogrammed. For years, mitochondrial dysfunction has been recognized as a hallmark of exhausted T cells in tumors. Yet ...

Researchers have uncovered a surprising molecular chain reaction in the brain that may play a role in some forms of autism.
