For the first time, researchers have been able to show how a cell closes the door to free radicals—small oxygen molecules ...

Researchers have created tiny metal-based particles that push cancer cells over the edge while leaving healthy cells mostly unharmed. The particles work by increasing internal stress in cancer cells ...

After a finite number of divisions, cells simply give up. As each round of replication trims their telomeres—the protective caps at the chromosome ends—those caps eventually become too short to ...

Replicative aging of human cells, the result of telomere shortening, is slower at physiological oxygen than at atmospheric oxygen, a difference now shown to be due to low oxygen impairing the ATM ...

Reducing calorie intake helps cancer-fighting immune cells do their jobs more effectively, reports a study by Van Andel Institute scientists and collaborators. The findings lay the groundwork for ...

A groundbreaking trial for Aquablation, a prostate cancer treatment utilising robotics, AI, and real-time imaging, has launched in the UK. The therapy aims to offer a curative option with fewer side ...
