EPFL researchers have uncovered how transcription factor dosage reshapes cell identity, showing that even small differences in dose can steer cells toward completely different fates. Their findings ...
Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, which are infection and tumor-fighting white blood cells, so that they have a ...
In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the "recipe" for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created ...
In recent years, we have come to appreciate that loss or dysfunction of insulin-producing islet beta cells underlies virtually all major forms of diabetes mellitus. In type 1 diabetes, beta cells ...

Cellular reprogramming is the hottest topic in longevity science, with tech titans like Sam Altman investing in it. It's now being tested in humans.
Blindness itself might become, at least in certain cases, partially reversible. This potential future stems from one of the most intriguing developments in regenerative medicine: epigenetic ...
A new paper in the journal Nature reveals an astonishing—and frankly unsettling—feature of some cancer cells: the ability to physically inject mitochondria into their neighboring cells. These ...
Promising mouse studies and billions of dollars in funding are stoking excitement. But we’ve been here before. Earlier this week, Life Biosciences, a biotech company focused on reversing age-related ...
When Samir Ounzain watched Jurassic Park at the age of 10, he knew he wanted to become a molecular biologist. Now he has a company that is trying to change the way we think about the so-called dark ...
