Cancer cells are known to reawaken embryonic genes to grow. A new study reveals the disease also hijacks the proteins, or "editors", that control how those genes are read. The findings, published ...

Researchers of the University of Barcelona and the August Pi i Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) have shown in a study with lung cancer cell lines that the same molecular signals that ...

The process behind embryonic diapause could explain how cancer cells can survive long periods of metabolic stress.

The patent’s assignee for patent number 8765467 is Technion Research and Development Foundation Ltd. (Haifa, IL). News editors obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by ...

Baylor College of Medicine researchers have found that a failure in the development of sperm cells can lead to the formation of testicular tumors in mice. These findings, published in the journal ...

Tumour cells in colorectal cancer exploit an important signalling pathway that normally controls embryo development. Researchers have now shown how a protein that controls the development of the arms ...

Under the microscope, MSK scientists studied how cells in a mouse embryo (green) move out and break away from their original tissue by contracting their surfaces (red). Studying this process, known as ...

Venture capitalists have been unfairly maligned by those who oppose federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. Such criticism was particularly harsh in California, where many notable VCs helped ...

Blue light is illuminating new understanding of a key signaling pathway in embryo development, tissue maintenance and cancer genesis. Researchers have developed an approach using blue light to ...
