Ruptosis — the explosive cell death researchers just named in flatworms — kills surrounding cells faster than any previously known cell-death pathway
A newly identified cell type in planarian flatworms can detonate itself and destroy neighboring cells in less than two ...
DNA can voyage along intercellular highways called tunneling nanotubes. It’s a phenomenon that could potentially spread tumor DNA to healthy cells.
Scientists are uncovering a surprising truth about aging cells: some may damage the body, while others help protect it. The discovery is fueling a new wave of precision anti-aging therapies aimed at ...
As blood stem cells age, their lysosomes become overactive and damaged, triggering inflammation and weakening the body’s ability to regenerate healthy blood and immune cells. By calming this cellular ...
Researchers identified a stem cell population that declines during aging, but anti-aging drugs may help restore their ...
Until now, cells dividing by mitosis were thought to grow round and then split into two identical, spherical daughter cells. New research has found that some cells are isomorphic, meaning they retain ...
