Chips seeded with the astronauts’ bone marrow cells circled the moon to help probe how deep-space flight affects human ...

Mars was long considered an inhospitable planet characterized by extremely cold temperatures and constant bombardment by ...

Cells can be thought of as cities, with factories, a transport system, and lots of building activity. An international team ...

UCLA researchers have identified a rogue population of immune cells that quietly accumulates in aging tissues and in the ...

Cells aren’t as passive as scientists once thought—they actively create internal currents to move proteins quickly and efficiently. These “cellular winds” push materials to the front of the cell, ...

Creating artificial systems that mimic the functioning of cells is one of the goals of what is known as synthetic biology.

A compact Cas12f nuclease shows high editing efficiency in human cells, with structural insights enabling an engineered variant potentially suited for future AAV‑compatible delivery.

Clustering of key proteins reduces molecular mobility inside cells but increases efficiency of amino acid synthesis. This ...

The feat — reported on the preprint server bioRxiv this month 1 — could boost efforts to re-engineer microbial life by moving entire genomes into bacteria to imbue them with useful properties, such as ...

Artificial intelligence is rapidly learning to autonomously design and run biological experiments, but the systems intended ...

Mineral casts of cancer cell surfaces reprogram fat cells into stem cells and improve insulin sensitivity in obese mice ...
