Scientists pinpoint key biological mechanism that can prevent proliferation of insulin-producing cells

If you become resistant to insulin, a condition that is a precursor to type 2 diabetes, your body tries to compensate by producing more of the "beta" cells in the pancreas that produce the critical hormone.

Researchers develop optimized sensors to study biochemical underpinnings of learning and memory

Learning and memory are crucial aspects of everyday life. When we learn, our neurons use chemical and molecular signals to change their shapes and strengthen connections between neurons, a process known as synaptic plasticity.

SETD8 enzyme protects against cellular senescence, research reveals

An enzyme that blocks cellular senescence and its mechanisms has been discovered by a research team from Kumamoto University, Japan. They found that a reduction of the enzyme SETD8, which regulates cell proliferation and gene function, results in the promotion of cell aging features.

UCLA researchers find ways to soften or stiffen up T cells for controlling immune response

T cells, the managers of our immune systems, spend their days shaking hands with another type of cell that presents small pieces of protein from pathogens or cancerous cells to the T cell.

8 Mar 2017

New biomarker 'Bim' could help predict optimal treatment for metastatic melanoma patients

Over the past few years, checkpoint blockade immunotherapies have revolutionized cancer treatment and helped many patients who were previously considered untreatable.
