Researchers from Harvard Medical School, the University of Maine, and MIT have developed a method for reversing cellular aging. The groundbreaking research could be an alternative to gene therapy for ...

As people age, their immune system function declines. T cell populations become smaller and can't react to pathogens as ...

Life runs on information. In living systems, that information takes two main forms: the genome and the epigenome. The genome stays mostly stable. The epigenome, however, constantly shifts, shaped by ...

Scientists are closing in on a deceptively simple idea with radical implications: that a single protein signal in the blood ...

Research at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory has shown that T cells, a type of white blood cell, may be altered to fight aging. In a mouse model, T cells countered a cell type linked to aging, reducing ...

Morphoceuticals is a biotechnology company that surveys the body’s nonneural bioelectric signaling networks. These networks, which enable disparate cells to serve collective purposes, constitute the ...

As the years wear down on us, our bodies accumulate a whole host of damaged cells that stubbornly refuse to die. Called senescent cells, these cellular oddballs are like the moldy fruit in the basket, ...

Jonas Salk quietly built the polio vaccine through rigorous, methodical work in Pittsburgh: treating patients, refinin ...

In a recent study published in PNAS Nexus, researchers created Drosophila models using multi-omics profiles to elucidate the biological mechanisms and effects of everyday low-intensity blue light ...
