Experiments with tools designed to detect DNA damage reveal unique and conserved features of telomeres in cancer cells.

The neurogenesis rates of some olfactory sensory neuron subtypes are selectively accelerated in mice that are exposed to odors that stimulate those subtypes.

A new state-of-the-art diagnostic test for animal African trypanosomiasis could detect sentinels of infection in domestic animals and aid control efforts.

This valuable study presents a novel approach to enhance the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) by genetically modifying their glycogen synthesis pathway, resulting in increased ...

During cell-to-cell spread, HIV-1 protease activity triggers CARD8 inflammasome activation and IL-1β release from macrophages, which may contribute to inflammation and chronic immune activation.

The enzyme arginase-II has an important role in cardiac aging, and blocking it could help hearts stay young longer.

This important study demonstrates the significance of incorporating biological constraints in training neural networks to develop models that make accurate predictions under novel conditions. By ...

Fingertip tactile neurons collectively encode the skin's viscoelastic state alongside current touch, potentially enabling the brain to better interpret forces during manipulation.

This valuable study concerns a model for transgenerational epigenetic inheritance, the learned avoidance by C. elegans of the PA14 pathogenic strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A recent study ...
