Many TNBC tumors exhibit elevated intracellular iron levels and heightened oxidative stress, creating a biological reliance on redox-active metals to sustain proliferation and epigenetic modifications ...

Every year, around 15 million babies worldwide are born before 37 weeks of gestation. Being born preterm can disrupt development, and earlier births increase the risk of life-changing health outcomes.

Nucleotide synthesis—the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA—is essential for cell growth and division. In most ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

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 ...

An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain's ...

Scientists have used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs capable of producing early embryos, an advance that could expand possibilities for fertility treatment, according to new research. The ...

For individuals with inherited eye disorders such as retinitis pigmentosa or macular degeneration, the irreversible degeneration of the retina—a layer of photoreceptors at the back of the eye—can ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

Mitochondrial diseases are severe, often untreatable, and they leave human cells unable to grow normally without outside help. A new study published in Nature Metabolism now shows that a single gene ...
