Manni Mohyuddin, MD, discusses his top multiple myeloma abstracts being presented at the upcoming American Society of Hematology annual meeting.

A major reason for the increase in prevalence is increased survival from improved management

A Japanese team has developed a technique to insert chloroplasts isolated from algae into animal cells, a feat that could revolutionize sustainable energy and how artificial meat and organs are created.

Europe has announced a €2 million project to research long COVID, following €100 million already invested since 2021. Is all this money bringing new insights?

Neffy is the first FDA-approved nasal spray for severe allergic reactions. Here, allergists weigh in on how it works, potential side effects, and costs.

Genetic screen identifies many mutations associated with autoimmune diseases that could help target therapy

Lumina Probiotic has said a genetically modified microbe could prevent cavities. Experts, though, have safety concerns

If you make a big enough toxin, it's difficult to get it out of the cells.

When nucleic acids like DNA or RNA build up in a cell's cytoplasm, it sets off an alarm call for the immune system. Enzymes usually clear these nucleic acids before they cause an issue, but when these enzymes don't work and the immune system gets called in, it can lead to autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

Autophagy is a process used by cells as a recycling system to transport and break down organelles and other cytosolic components, which become enveloped in a membrane called the autophagosome. When this involves the removal of damaged mitochondria, it is known as mitophagy.

Abstract. Phages—viruses that infect bacteria—have evolved over billions of years to overcome bacterial defenses. Temperate phage, upon infection, can "choose"

Results from interim analysis suggest 'potential to disrupt the NMIBC treatment landscape'

Living cells work better than dying cells, right? However, this is not always the case: your cells often sacrifice themselves to keep you healthy. The unsung hero of life is death.While death may seem passive, an unfortunate ending that just "happens," the death of your cells is often extremely purp...

Delivering mRNAs to the cells lining the nose and lungs will make vaccines more effective and may also lead to better treatments for conditions such as cystic fibrosis

Targeting the membrane of a virus, rather than its proteins, could lead to a new generation of antivirals

When considering a bacterial population as a multicellular community, it is imperative to understand the inherent roles of maintaining homeostasis and viability in response to environmental factors. Cannibalism is a strategy to cope with nutrient deficiency in the environment, which maintains survival of the Bacillus population. Although cannibalism is well-investigated in Bacillus subtilis, the model species of…

By using phylogenetic analyses of multiple microdissected samples from both cancer and non-cancer lesions, unique evolutionary histories of breast cancers harbouring a common driver alteration are shown, providing new insight into how breast cancer evolves.

Viruses, like movie villains, operate in one of two ways: chill or kill.

The bacterial cell wall must be constantly remodeled in order to grow and divide. This involves the close coordination of lytic enzymes and peptidoglycan synthesis.

Bacteria and fungi can be found lurking in and around tumours. These microbial residents may be crucial to understanding how cancer develops and how to treat it.
