Researchers at Umeå University have discovered that the microscopic "bubbles" released by bacteria in our body do not just ...

A new study by the University of California, Davis, shows how cells work together to avoid a sudden drop in blood sugar. Understanding these feedback loops could improve the lives of people with ...

For years, scientists have focused their attention on the pancreas’ insulin-producing beta cells and left small clusters of ...

This important study demonstrates that ocular organoids can generate both retina and lens through a non-canonical, "inside-out" morphogenetic route. The work is solid, with well-designed experiments ...

Professor Adam Paré's research identifies the fundamental mechanisms that mold tissues during animal development. On Wednesday, he will discuss epithelial remodeling during development.

Mice given the keto diet had a key marker of heart disease — excess fat in their blood. Male mice also developed fatty livers ...

From flexible implants to circuits seeded with living cells, a new kind of electronics is starting to produce long-lasting implants with the potential to help everything from paralysis to hearing and ...

Epithelial cells line the body’s surfaces to protect against physical damage, pathogens, and dehydration. These cells play key roles in absorbing nutrients and removing waste products, as well as ...

A paper published in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key driver in ...

When storage capacity within fat tissue is exceeded, lipids accumulate in other tissues like the liver and pancreas, likely contributing to insulin resistance, liver disease and diabetes. The new ...
