In a recent study published in Nature, researchers from the United States of America investigated how cells separate competing metabolic pathways within mitochondria, namely oxidative phosphorylation ...

Cancer imaging is entering a phase where malignant cells no longer hide in murky grayscale but flare into view with surgical ...

When cell division (mitosis) takes too long, it can be a sign that something is wrong with the cells, for example DNA damage or chromosomal instability. That's why our cells come with an innate ...

A protein once thought to simply help cancer cells avoid death turns out to do much more. MCL1 actively drives cancer ...

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...

One of the hallmarks of cancer cells is their ability to evade apoptosis, or programmed cell death, through changes in protein expression. Inducing apoptosis in cancer cells has become a major focus ...

A light-induced gene therapy can damage cancer cells’ mitochondria, triggering widespread cancer cell death. Researchers at Ohio State University (OH, USA) have developed a light-induced gene therapy ...
