This study provides insights into how environmental factors may translate into biological changes not only for parents, but ...

New research, published today in the journal Science, shows how lysosomes - organelles that act like cells' waste disposal system - respond to stress by becoming abnormally bloated, a process called ...

Scientists studying tiny roundworms have uncovered how the secrets of a long life can be passed from parents to their ...

What role do lysosomes play in cells, and how does lysosomal vacuolation affect their function? Lysosomes are essential for cell health. Like a waste disposal system, they digest damaged proteins, ...

New research in the roundworm C. elegans shows how changes in the parent’s lysosomes that promote longevity are transferred to its offspring.

New research has uncovered a mechanism for parents to pass down longevity, to their progeny, via changes to their lysosome ...

Macrophages rely on lysosomes to balance microbial killing with self-protection, generating reactive oxygen and nitrogen ...

This mechanism for conferring longevity across generations could also explain how other stress-adaptive traits are passed to offspring.

Research in C. elegans shows that longevity-related changes in lysosomes can be passed from parents to offspring ...

New research, published in the journal Science, shows how lysosomes—organelles that act like cells' waste disposal system—respond to stress by becoming abnormally bloated, a process called lysosomal ...
