Using computational screening, researchers have discovered an antibiotic called Dynobactin, that halts the advance of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Scientists have discovered that hepatic stellate cells are key in allowing dormant cancer cells to awaken and form fatal metastases.
A team has used two viruses to administer specific tumour components in mice with cancer to stimulate their immune system.
A team has found immune cells in the lungs after infection from the flu, which protected mice against reinfection from a different strain.
Researchers have developed a highly sensitive technique for probing molecules that they say could enable new applications in the fields of spectroscopy.
A study has shown that using three antibodies with two different mechanisms of action could be a novel way to improve immuno-oncology treatments.
It has been discovered that Id4 controls whether stem cells enter cell division and may be relevant for treating neurodegenerative disease.
A new study may provide the basis for combating malignant leukemia stem cells.
A new study shows that stable angiogenesis can be achieved by simply injecting a hydrogel with mechanical properties resembling that of a blood clot...
Specific immune cells, such as neutrophils, have been found to aid the progression of cancers, promoting metastasis in tumours...

Scientists in Switzerland have constructed an enzyme than can penetrate a mammalian cell and accelerate the release of a hormone. This then activates a gene switch that triggers the creation of a fluorescent protein.
Researchers have presented a systematic catalogue of specific variable locations in the genome that influence gene activity in the human hippocampus...
