The mere presence of a dead counterpart elicits strong responses across species. For example, many insects such as bees and ...

In biology classes from high school through university, I learned that mitochondria are little objects that reside within ...

Researchers have discovered how to block cells dying, in a finding that could lead to new treatments for neurodegenerative ...

In a new study, researchers have identified a way to stop cells from dying, opening the door to developing treatments that ...

A team of Australian scientists has identified a small molecule that blocks cell death, an advance that could lead to new ...

Measuring the density of a cell can reveal a great deal about the cell's state. As cells proliferate, differentiate, or undergo cell death, they may gain or lose water and other molecules, which is ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...

Ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell death mediated by iron, has been a focus for its potential in cancer therapies. Now, researchers have discovered that lysosomal lipid peroxidation plays a ...

Researchers have discovered how to block cells dying, in a finding that could lead to new treatments for neurodegenerative ...

The team at WEHI, including researchers from the Parkinson’s Disease Research Centre, have identified a small molecule that can selectively block cell death. Published in Science Advances, the ...

Roughly 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer over their lifetimes, according to the American Cancer ...
