Researchers have found that a new class of light-sensitive proteins are capable of turning off brain cells with light

With the new technique, MIT researchers hope to identify mutations that could be targeted with new cancer therapies.

Researchers at Peter Mac have made a key discovery in liver regeneration that may have important implications for liver cancer. Joint research by Associate Professor Andrew Cox and Professor Mark Dawson, published Feb. 15 in Developmental Cell, has identified how the liver is triggered to regrow when damaged.

Researchers at the University of Toronto’s Donnelly Center for Cellular and Biomolecular Research have found nearly one million new exons—stretches of DNA that are expressed in mature RNA—in the human genome.

New technique made human T cells 100 times more potent at killing cancer cells

Preclinical research published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer points to a promising new treatment option for people with pancreatic cancer. Researchers from VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center and the VCU Institute of Molecular Medicine (VIMM) suggest that when used in a form that can be delivered directly into the tumor cell, polyinosine–polycytidylic acid (pIC) suppresses tumor growth, induces cancer cell death and enhances survival in animal models with the most common form of pancreatic cancer

New research finds RNA-guided enzymes called Fanzors are widespread among eukaryotic organisms.

Restoring contacts between mitochondria and lysosomes improves neuronal function
