A type of rare T cell triggers a cascade of signals amplifying inflammation and ultimately leading to liver fibrosis, ...

T cell activation—the process by which these key immune defenders recognize threats and mobilize against them—depends on exquisitely timed molecular signals. Now researchers have captured one of the ...

When the liver is injured - for example, due to bile accumulation - immune cells become activated. In mouse experiments, the ...

Age-related changes in cells are synchronized across organs, suggesting common molecular signals that could be targeted with drugs. As we age with each passing year, we become more susceptible to ...

Researchers identified GSK3α as a key checkpoint controlling stem cell identity across multiple cell types. Inhibiting it ...

For the first time, a stem cell model has produced a structure resembling an early human embryo with a yolk-sac-like structure, from a single starting stem cell population and without direct genetic ...
