Cells that are about to die send a signal to an executioner protein, but sometimes, those cells can fight back and regenerate ...

Cancer-killing T cells have been programmed to have two levels of specificity. First, the T cells have been equipped with a receptor sensitive to a protein that is found only in central nervous system ...

This review highlights the critical role of ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) in regulating programmed cell death (PCD) in breast cancer (BC). As the most prevalent malignant tumor among women, BC ...

The latest findings on the interaction between cell death and cellular senescence in cancer and their pathophysiological significance have been reviewed. Aging cells secrete substances known to ...

Everyone is looking to slow down aging -- one class of over-the-counter drugs is growing in popularity because it targets problematic cells. Prins Productions - stock.adobe.com Everyone is looking to ...

The program at John Theurer Cancer Center is the largest in New Jersey, offering advanced cell-based treatments and numerous research trials. A multidisciplinary team committed to patient-centered ...

In the fight against disease, programmed cell death – also known as apoptosis – is a key protective function of the body. It breaks down cells that are damaged or have undergone dangerous changes.

The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across ...

A study by the Mildred Scheel Early Career Center group led by Dr. Mohamed Elgendy at the TUD Faculty of Medicine provides fundamental insights into cancer biology. Published in Nature Communications, ...

Biological cells process data and perform computations all the time. They take inputs in the form of external stimuli and produce specific responses. Recently, scientists have been looking at ways to ...

In Alzheimer's, brain cells die too soon. In cancer, dangerous cells don't die soon enough. That's because both diseases alter the way cells decide when to end their lives, a process called programmed ...
