Damage to the body's peripheral nerves can cause pain and movement disorders. Researchers have recently investigated how damaged nerves can regenerate better. They found that fat tissue strongly ...

A recent study published in EMBO Reports by researchers from Osaka University and Nara Medical University sheds light on a fundamental process within cells-microautophagy-that plays a crucial role in ...

Researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research, London identified the CIP2A–TOPBP1 complex as a master regulator of DNA repair during mitosis, coordinating backup pathways that protect chromosomes ...

When injured, cells have well-regulated responses to promote healing. These include a long-studied self-destruction process that cleans up dead and damaged cells as well as a more recently identified ...

A new study from the Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute now shows how human stem cell based therapy may help ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

As muscles age, their cells lose the ability to regenerate and heal after injury. Now, researchers have created the most comprehensive portrait to date of how that change, in mice, unfolds over time.

Researchers at Umea University discovered how cells detect and repair damage in lysosomal membranes. Two autophagy protein ...

Working out doesn't just build muscle but, in later life, helps maintain a powerful cellular machine that repairs damaged ...

As muscles age, their cells lose the ability to regenerate and heal after injury. Cornell Engineering researchers have ...
