US researchers looking at how stress affects the gut stumbled upon a potent chemical that caused mice to regrow hair by blocking a stress-related hormone, said a study on Wednesday.While the process has not yet been tested in humans, it grew ...
The quest to generate replacement tissue in the lab faced questions on Thursday over mature cells whose DNA is "reprogrammed" so that they grow with youthful vigour into new cells.Cellular reprogramming last year emerged as the new frontier in the heavily ...
Dulbecco, Renato (1914-), an Italian-born American virologist, shared the 1975 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine with David Baltimore and Howard Martin Temin of the United States for their research on how certain viruses affect the genes of cancer cells. At Levi ...
As if gimpy knees, clogged arteries, and forgetfulness weren't bad enough, new research has identified another way our bodies falter as we get older. To answer this question, cell biologist Martin Hetzer of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San ...
Zebrafish hearts can take a licking and keep on ticking. To pinpoint where the newly grown heart cells were coming from, developmental biologist Juan Carlos Izpis?a Belmonte and his colleagues at the Center of Regenerative Medicine in Barcelona, Spain, and the ...
Researchers have discovered a mechanism by which adenoviruses breach cellular defenses, and this could help explain how p53 tumor-suppressor genes are disabled in cancer cells and point the way to the development of new, more effective targeted cancer therapies; these findings have ...
Now scientists from the Salk Institute for Biological Studies have identified the signal that prevents stem cells from proliferating, protecting the brain against too much cell division and ensuring a pool of neural stem cells that lasts a lifetime.. "This study provided ...
As the first brave flowers start to poke through the cold, wet ground this spring, gardeners might wonder what drives a plant's reach for the sky. The other theory held that the epidermis grows first, creating a void that the inner ...
