During mold infection, a cytokine sends signals to neutrophils to kill invading fungal spores in the lungs, enhancing survival.

The team at DropGenie uses digital microfluidics to perform gene editing screens on small numbers of patient cells, accelerating the discovery of new drugs.

Antibiotics target bacteria, but new work in mice shows they also harm the mucus layer that protects the intestinal lining from microbes.

Researchers revealed for the first time that CAR T cells can transfer their CAR molecules to regular T cells in a process known as trogocytosis.

Using a sheep model, researchers developed an injectable biomaterial that interacts with nearby cells and recruits them to make new cartilage.

Bacteria can invade colorectal cancer tumors, leading to worse disease outcomes. Oxygen — or lack thereof — plays a vital role in this interaction.

By watching brain organoids develop, researchers observed surprising abnormalities caused by mutations in a gene related to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

Researchers discovered that where mRNA translation occurs in the cytoplasm changes protein expression level and sometimes even function.

Microscopy images reveal the structural change that enlarges an ion channel pore, opening new directions in drug discovery and delivery.

Researchers use fluorescence-based imaging to visualize a cellular invasion event in worms, revealing candidates for gene knockdown strategies to block metastasis.
