Histone modification signatures mark sites of transcriptional regulatory elements and regions of gene activation and repression. These sites vary among cell types and undergo dynamic changes during ...

CD4 T helper cells are a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte that serves an important role in your immune system. These cells help defend the body against infection by directing other "killer ...

To discover how brain cells respond to microgravity, scientists sent tiny clumps of stem-cell derived brain cells called 'organoids' to the International Space Station. Microgravity is known to ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over two years since we heard anything official about the game. From what we've ...

Your immune cells are what they eat Scientists establish novel link between cell nutrition and identity, say targeting nutrient-dependent activity could improve immunotherapies Date: December 12 ...

Recent insights revealed that piRNAs and PIWI proteins, known for their roles in germline maintenance, significantly influence mRNA stability, translation and retrotransposon silencing in both stem ...

These tiny though profoundly dense objects — think of an atom-sized particle wielding the mass of a mountain — are dubbed "primordial black holes." But there's a problem: There's still no ...
