Researchers suggest "one daring idea" would be to apply the concept of habituation to the relationship between cancer and immunity.

A new study suggests that individual cells may exhibit learning-like behaviors, previously thought exclusive to organisms with nervous systems.

But a new study, published Nov. 19 in Current Biology, offers compelling evidence that even tiny single-cell creatures such as ciliates and amoebae, as well as the cells in our own bodies, could ...

With this, researchers hope to find what factors are involved in sEV release from host cells. This will help advance our understanding of basic sEV biology and may aid in the development of new ...

Up until recently, habituation — a simple form of learning — was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a new ...

This important work advances our understanding of DNA methylation and its consequences for susceptibility to DNA damage. This work presents evidence that DNA methylation can accentuate the genomic ...

Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) excels over the widely used fluorescence intensity imaging by allowing the measurement of absolute signal levels, independent of sensor concentration.

Background Peritoneal metastasis is the most common metastasis pattern of gastric cancer. Patients with gastric cancer ...

Exacerbations of the chronic and progressive inflammatory disease bronchiectasis can impact quality of life. Treatment, based ...

More than paying lip service, the cells may offer new opportunities to research and treat various lip conditions ...

The cell is the basic building block of life ... Embedded in this big picture is an introduction to the biology of some key taxa that characterise biodiversity. This module provides an introduction to ...

The scientific study of plants also occurs at multiple scales from molecules and cells to individual organisms, and from populations and communities to landscapes and ecosystems. Plant biology is a ...
