Within each of us lies an army of cells whose topmost duty is protecting against external pathogens and internal threats such as proliferating cancer cells. Yet, immune cells can sometimes erroneously ...

Platinum-based chemotherapy is foundational in the management of a wide range of solid malignancies, yet the emergence of drug resistance sharply limits ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper has demonstrated that this form of cellular ...

Drug development is aiming to move from managing disease to correcting it through RNA and gene-editing therapies.

New research from scientists at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and their collaborators elsewhere describes a way of improving extracellular vesicles’ ability to transport things like therapeutic ...

Two squirts of a nasal spray, spaced days apart, were enough to quiet overactive immune cells in the brains of aging mice and ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale lipid bilayer particles secreted by cells that mediate intercellular communication ...

Researchers analyzed small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from different cell types. Different sEVs delivered siRNA to ...

But some antibiotics may also push bacteria to release tiny particles that can make inflammation worse. While inflammation is part of the body’s natural defense against infection, too much ...
