Why do diabetic wounds refuse to heal? A new scientific review highlights how disruptions in the timing and behavior of ...

The process of aging, and how to stop it, has long puzzled scientists. However, in a new study, published in the journal EMBO Reports, researchers from Osaka University and Nara Medical University in ...

A recent study published in EMBO Reports by researchers from Osaka University and Nara Medical University sheds light on a fundamental process within cells-microautophagy-that plays a crucial role in ...

New research from the Kind Group at the Hubrecht Institute sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human ...

The study is the first to identify a damage response pathway that is distinct from but parallel to the classical pathway triggered by pathogens. It's a dangerous world out there. From bacteria and ...

University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered how the cells that let us hear can repair themselves after being damaged. That important insight could benefit efforts to develop ...

Biologists discovered that mitochondria in different tissues talk to each other to repair injured cells. When their signal fails, the biological clock starts winding down. Aging can seem like an ...

Following an injury, such as a traumatic crush injury, the peripheral nervous system is itself often able to effectively regenerate. This regeneration capacity is mainly attributable to the Schwann ...

Houston Methodist scientists have uncovered an unexpected side of a protein best known for its link to brain diseases. The ...

A new fluorescent sensor is giving scientists an unprecedented view of how cells respond to DNA damage, capturing the repair process as it unfolds in real time. The tool, developed at Utrecht ...
