In the quest for more targeted lung cancer treatments, a researcher at the University of Missouri thinks the solution may lie in tiny bubble-shaped packages that cells use to talk to each other. In a ...
Circulating microRNAs as well as urinary extracellular vesicles plus cytokines potentially reflect lupus nephritis activity beyond traditional laboratory parameters. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) and ...
Angus is STAT’s cancer reporter. Marissa, when not working as an intern, studies extracellular vesicles in the brain in her Ph.D. research. Angus Chen covers all issues broadly related to cancer ...
How do we think, feel, remember, or move? It all depends on transmission of chemical signals in the brain, carried and released by molecular containers called vesicles. In a new study, researchers ...
Summary: A new computational model has mapped the brain’s vesicle cycle in unprecedented detail, providing fresh insight into how nerve cells communicate. Researchers collaborated to simulate how ...
New research from scientists at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and their collaborators elsewhere describes a way of improving extracellular vesicles’ ability to transport things like therapeutic ...
Understanding friction forces at the cellular level is critical for understanding cell motion and function, yet their direct measurement in living systems is challenging due to the complex interplay ...
