Specialized blood vessels and nitric oxide found to be key to stem cell survival and immune evasion
An international group of researchers has identified an important mechanism that enables stem cells to evade immune rejection. Their research, published in Nature, sheds light on how these specialized ...
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the cells that produce insulin—a critical hormone that regulates blood sugar in the body. Scientists at Scripps ...
Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package — growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on — and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first ...
In a recent study, researchers at the University of California, San Diego, have provided new insights into the central role of goblet cells—specialized cells that line the gut—in maintaining a healthy ...

Discover how specialized cells form immune-boosting niches in lung tumors, unlocking new strategies to enhance cancer treatments and improve outcomes. Study: Fibroblastic reticular cells generate ...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) affects the brain and spinal cord limiting movement, vision, and others. Known as an autoimmune disorder, this chronic disease of the central nervous system slows or blocks ...
By moving from a vague knowledge of “microbes make rock”, to a precise understanding of how the “Filament Factory” uses specialized cells to build, and grow, calcite crystals, the field is a step ...
A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...
An international group of researchers led by Kazuhiro Furuhashi (Nagoya University and Columbia University) and Joji Fujisaki (Harvard University and Columbia University) has identified an important ...
