A shift in the balance between two lipids – cholesterol and sphingomyelin – makes hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal cancer cells less responsive to certain chemotherapy drugs.

Lipid imbalance triggered by Snail-driven epithelial–mesenchymal transition creates a cholesterol-dependent vulnerability ...

Figure 1: Immunomodulatory effects of simulated MSCs. MSCs utilize different molecular mechanisms to suppress (in most cases) or activate immune cells. Orange arrows: inhibition; Green arrows: ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are unique adult stem cells with immunosuppressive properties that also may play a key role in preventing autoimmunity. In a new study, researchers identified metabolic ...

The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents ...

Despite current treatments, patients continue to suffer from cutaneous radiation syndrome (CRS) necessitating exploration and implementation of new technologies. Regenerative medicine, by way of adult ...
