Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

Feb. 10, 2025 — Influenza A virus particles strategically adapt their shape -- to become either spheres or larger filaments -- to favor their ability to infect cells depending on environmental ...

This important study demonstrates the potential of synthetic gene circuits to detect and target aberrant RAS activity in cancer cell lines. The circuit design is novel and the evidence supporting the ...

Modifications can be generated by methods such as gene targeting, nuclear transplantation, transfection of synthetic ... Phenotypes of Null Alleles in Cells (MorPhiC) Consortium as it aims to ...

The stability of Pt-based catalysts is critical to the reliability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Here, the authors use stroboscopic operando high energy X-ray scattering to reveal Pt ...

Gene sequencing of these D1.1 viruses has found a mutation that helps the virus copy itself more efficiently into the cells of mammals, including people. This change hasn’t been seen in other D1 ...

Many cells in multicellular organisms are specialised. They have specific roles in the organism of which they are part. Their structure is adapted to their function. They are often grouped ...

This is called photosynthesis. The basic structure of a plant cell is shown below. Photosynthesis relies on many structures in the cell all working together, each playing its role. The diagram ...
