Primary immunodeficiencies are genetic disorders that impact on the immune system due to defective function of a variety of genes. Among those molecules are ...
Exemplary Ca2+ signaling microdomains. Cartoon illustration of various microdomains featured in different types of cells, all being artificially integrated in a hypothetical single cell. (1) Cardiac ...
Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...
(MEMPHIS, Tenn. – November 6, 2025) The enzyme RNA polymerase II transcribes genes into messenger RNA. This process is guided by modifications to the enzyme’s “tail” called phosphorylation patterns.
Hyperactive signaling pathways of some aggressive blood cancer cells can be tamped down by a previously unrecognized protein ...
A UCLA study found that macrophages rely on interferon gamma signaling from past infections to preserve innate defenses.
A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an 'outside in' signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work reveals a new signaling mechanism that could be exploited for delivering other ...
Cells use various signaling molecules to regulate the nervous, immune, and vascular systems. Among these, nitric oxide (NO) and ammonia (NH₃) play important roles, but their chemical instability and ...
Australian researchers have uncovered a crucial new mechanism that helps explain how the heart's major blood vessels form during early development, and how disruptions to this process can lead to ...
