In the march of metastasis, a molecular trail of crumbs guides some cancer cells from the primary tumor to establish new ...

This study reports a novel immune evasion strategy evolved by dengue virus (DENV) to dampen T-cell mediated viral clearance.

Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be ...

Our remarkable ability to perform complex tasks—such as thinking, observing, and touch—stems from proteins, the tiny nanometer-sized molecules in the body. Despite decades of research, our ...

Consumers are no longer just asking for more protein – they are demanding it in smarter, cleaner and more diverse forms. With health, sustainability and taste driving the global protein market, food ...

Shimmering like spun gold, sea silk fabric is so lustrous that some believe it inspired the Greek legends of Jason’s quest for the Golden Fleece. For centuries, artisans in the Mediterranean have ...

From vampire legends to lab-grown tissue, the idea that young blood can reverse aging is no longer pure myth. A new study shows that proteins secreted by bone marrow cells, triggered by young blood, ...

In the study, "Epithelial cell membrane perforation induces allergic airway inflammation," published in Nature, researchers designed a purification-and-reconstitution strategy to test whether fungal ...

A new paper published today in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key ...

For those outside the chemistry cognoscenti, the announcement might have seemed little more than researchers patting each other on the back. But the question of protein folding had plagued scientists ...

ABSTRACT: Prostate cancer is reported to be the second most common cancer in men. At this time, there exist over 20 FDA-approved drugs for the treatment of prostate cancer. These include alkylating ...

Aging-related diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disorders and type 2 diabetes, are associated with defects in protein synthesis and folding. Previous studies have shown that protein ...
