Researchers found that frequent blood donation may favor genetic adaptations in blood stem cells, promoting healthy regeneration. While mutations in leukemia-associated genes were present, they differed from preleukemic variants.

Researchers have developed a "colocatome" that illustrates how noncancerous cells affect their neighboring tumor cells.

Scientists propose that temperature is a key trigger for metamorphic proteins, enabling them to switch between shapes. Their study suggests temperature-dependent hydrophobic interactions drive this transformation.

Researchers discovered that inducing a prolonged torpor-like state in mice reduced epigenetic aging by 37%. The study found that lower body temperature, not metabolic rate or calorie intake, was the key factor in slowing aging.

Researchers have uncovered a source of "replication stress" during DNA replication, shedding light on a new cancer target.

A new study led by UCLA investigators suggests that chronic stress and an unhealthy diet may work together to fuel the early development of pancreatic cancer, shedding light on how lifestyle factors contribute to one of the deadliest malignancies.

A single dose of psilocin can induce changes in human nerve cells, providing researchers with a better understanding of the mechanisms behind psilocin's effects.

A single molecular switch is essential for blood stem cells to enter an activated, regenerative state in which they produce new blood cells, according to a preclinical study led by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.

A universal vascular graft made from stem cell-derived arterial endothelial cells could advance the field of vascular bypass surgery.

Scientists discovered that some of the peptides released in the proteasome during protein breakdown are capable of killing bacteria. These findings offer new hope for tackling the threat of antibiotic resistance.
