Scientists at Houston Methodist have developed an artificial intelligence platform that can decode how cells communicate inside the human body, opening a window into conditions such as Alzheimer's ...

Signaling is fundamental to how cells sense and respond to their environment—but in immune cells, those signals must be precisely amplified to mount an effective defense against invasive threats. New ...

A team at Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U) has uncovered a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism by which cells send signals to one another—an insight that could help ...

Cells constantly probe their environments, searching for physical cues that guide their behavior. And yet a cell's response to its environment is always biochemical, mediated by the chemistry of its ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Scientists have discovered how cells decide when to respond to physical forces, potentially opening new avenues for tackling diseases such as cancer and fibrosis. The study, led by researchers at King ...

A team at Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U) has uncovered a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism by which cells send signals to one another-insight that could help ...

But a new mouse study suggests part of its hunger-suppressing power comes from the hindbrain — an evolutionarily old region at the base of the brain that helps regulate basic survival functions, ...
