Researchers have used gene therapy to partially reprogram the brain cells that store memories in aging mice, reversing signs of cellular decline and restoring learning ability. The technique, ...

A mechanism underlying neutrophil reprogramming in brain cancers has been uncovered, illuminating potential therapeutic targets to stop their pro-cancer effect. Tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

The lab of Filippo Veglia, Ph.D., at The Wistar Institute has discovered a previously unknown mechanism for how aggressive brain cancers reprogram immune system cells from fighting cancer to enabling ...

Comparison of DNA sequencing, immunohistochemistry, and in-situ hybridization techniques to determine HER2 status in metastatic breast cancer patients. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2022 ...

When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its metabolism is also altered. This process of neuronal ageing — inevitable with ...

Researchers at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist have shown that engineered macrophages can infiltrate brain tumor sites, recognize cancer cells, and destroy them in preclinical mouse models, ...
