“This is an early but exciting step toward recharging aging tissues using their own biological machinery,” Gaharwar says in ...

The structural and functional characteristics of mitochondria shape their role as signaling organelles, with far-reaching ...

Tiny structures inside your cells keep your body alive by turning food into fuel. These structures, called mitochondria, power every heartbeat, thought, and movement. When they fail, organs that need ...

A Dartmouth study published in Nature Communications reveals that immune cells in the brain use a surprising two-step process ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move remain unclear. Research published in the Biophysical Journal shows that ...

Investigators have developed a way to 'supercharge' T cells by supplying them with extra mitochondria from multipotent stromal cells. Fighting cancer is exhausting for T cells. Hostile tumor ...

Researchers use nanoflower-enhanced stem cells to supply extra mitochondria to damaged cells, restoring energy production and cell function without genetic modification. (Nanowerk News) Biomedical ...

Aging can seem like an unregulated process: As time marches along, our cells and bodies inevitably accumulate dings and dents that cause dysfunctions, failures, and ultimately death. However, in 1993 ...

Immunotherapy, which uses programmed immune cells to selectively destroy cancer cells, has transformed cancer treatment. However, cancer cells have developed immune evasion strategies, leading to poor ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. I always wanted to understand life. What moves us? What allows us to heal and thrive? And what goes wrong when we get sick or when ...
