UNC researchers discovered how a key step in cell signaling works by showing exactly how G proteins detach from receptors ...

The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme's "tail" called phosphorylation patterns. Scientists at St. Jude Children's ...

Researchers at UT San Antonio have uncovered new details about electrical signals happening within nerve cells, deepening ...

We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (TRM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a scalable 3D organoid model that captures key features of early limb development, revealing ...

Scientists from Tulane University and The University of Texas at Dallas have discovered a new way that nerve cells communicate – by releasing an enzyme outside the cell that switches on pain signaling ...

Cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) is primarily caused by oncogenesis mediated by ultraviolet radiation, and β-human papillomavirus (β-HPV) is believed to be a mere facilitator that is ...

Chemerin is a key adipokine that regulates lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity, and thus is involved in many metabolic ...
