Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The discovery may change our understanding of tissu
Flagship Pioneering, creator of Moderna, has just unveiled Terrana Biosciences, providing $50mm to scale-up development of their flagship product, an mRNA spray which enters the plant and alters gene expression.
Flagship Pioneering's new RNA-based crop protection company could provide 'a huge way to deal with climate change'
Scientists have developed a hydrogel "rest stop" that shields cancer-fighting T cells, delaying their exhaustion and boosting their killing power. This game-changing strategy could supercharge immunotherapy by giving T cells time to regroup and h
...for stem cells, growth hormone and healing even improving mitochondrial significantly : irrefutable proof.
Scientists are just a few years from creating viable human sex cells in the lab, according to an internationally renowned pioneer of the field, who says the advance could open up biology-defying possibilities for reproduction.
Scientists have developed a nasal "molecular shield" that disarms pollen, blocking allergic reactions fast without the use of drugs.
Creating the First Synthetic Human D.N.A From Scratch
The Synthetic Human Genome Project is being funded by the Wellcome Trust, which has donated Rs 117 crore (10 million pounds).
A new study has found that psychopaths show structural changes in particular areas of the brain that deal with things like impulse control and emotional regulation.
For the first time, scientists have unraveled just how high levels of fructose affect the body, flipping a genetic switch as it's broken down – one that primes your immune system to overreact to things it would normally ignore.
A new organelle has been found by scientists at the University of Virginia (UVA). The super-small specialized structure has a role recycling material inside our cells, and its discovery could lead to improved treatments for a wide range of diseases.
Disgusting: New Company Charging $5,999 to Advise Which Humans Should Live and Which Should Die
Absolutely Not
Parasites are known to infect human cells through a variety of ingenious mechanisms. Many of them have even evolved sophisticated strategies to evade a host's immune system by avoiding it entirely.
For years, the CRISPR-Cas9 genome technology has been reshaping genetic engineering, a precision tool to transform everything from agriculture to medicine.
A question from a curious kid quickly led a team of scientists down a research rabbit hole – one that has now culminated in fascinating new knowledge about our water-wrinkled fingertips. And there's more to this discovery than a cool piece of trivi
