Scientists have collected troves of DNA and microscopic imaging data from human cells—and now they have a tool that might ...

Researchers have published a prospective, randomized and controlled study on the use of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) in lung transplantation. The findings could significantly change the standard ...

Researchers hunting for a cure for cancer have made a groundbreaking discovery that could turn some cancer cells into 'normal' cells. Cancer occurs in the body when the DNA of a cell mutates, causing ...

Cell therapies are medical treatments which involve introducing healthy cells into a patient’s body to treat or prevent disease. These cells are often genetically modified to make them more effective.

In a trailblazing advancement in cancer therapy, researchers at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed a technology that transforms colon cancer cells into ...

Researchers have created a way to guide and control the development of stem cells into specific tissues and organs, opening the door to developing a means of one day tackling complex diseases like ...

In traditional treatments though, most of the time, side effects arise because the body winds up losing cellular material and often, healthy cells and tissue die along with the damaged cancer cells.

Russell is a Science Writer with IFLScience and has a PhD in the History of Science, Medicine and Technology.

Instead of killing cancer cells, their technology reverts these cells to a state similar to normal colon cells, effectively avoiding the harmful side effects associated with conventional treatments.

Recycling holiday wrapping paper and tissue paper depends on the type of ... then it also cannot go into the recycling bin, Ueta said. Gift bags aren’t recyclable because they are often coated ...

The team has unveiled an innovative technique to convert fibroblasts—common connective tissue cells—into mature and functional induced cardiomyocytes (iCMs). Their method relies on combining ...

"Our findings shed new light into how the stiffening of tumor tissue can promote tumor cell proliferation." In the article, researchers reveal that when a cell is faced with a stiff environment ...
