Now, a study reveals this 'drift' in gut stem cells is fueled by inflammation and disrupted cell signaling, and it may help explain why our risk of colorectal cancer rises with age. The international ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — In the march of metastasis, a molecular trail of crumbs guides some cancer cells from the primary tumor to establish new colonies within the body. Blocking the cells’ ability to ...

Stanford University-led researchers report that tumor cells hijack mitochondria from immune cells, reducing anti-tumor immune ...

Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a metabolically dynamic niche where cancer cells and immune cells interact to influence tumor progression and immune ...

Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the immune system. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists recently ...

The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents ...

Human cells decode dynamics Wnt signals using an anti-resonant filter that suppresses intermediate-frequency inputs and is ...

Research led by the SickKids Research Institute in Toronto and the University of Pennsylvania, has found that immune-related ...

The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — long-lived cells that help repair and replace damaged tissue in the lungs — ...
