New research reveals that certain brain tumors may originate silently within normal brain cells long before a tumor forms.

Modern cells are complex chemical entities with cytoskeletons, finely regulated internal and external molecules, and genetic ...

Cells that are about to die send a signal to an executioner protein, but sometimes, those cells can fight back and regenerate ...

That’s only one problem. Your immune system also has an adaptive system of specialized immune cells and antibodies that attack and destroy invading microbes. This system remembers what those intruders ...

Scientists can peer into cells to get a limited view of their activity using microscopes and other tools. However, cells and ...

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to the stem cells responsible for maintaining and healing the intestine. The ...

Msheireb Museums and Sidra Medicine hosted the first Science Café session of 2026, marking the third year of their ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Science succeeds by failure, just as surely as it works by success. We slowly come to know how the physical world works by learning that what we thought was true is all wrong. Science teaches us to ...

Creating human eggs from adult cells just got one step closer to reality. A technique used in cloning combined with fertilization and a bit of chemical coaxing caused human skin cells to produce eggs ...
