Scientists have identified a new RNA molecule that may play a key role in improving survival in cancer patients.

How does the brain link memory to motivation? A new study reveals that dorsal and ventral hippocampal pathways converge on the same neurons to drive reward-seeking behavior.

Scientists mapped the maternal–fetal interface revealing new cell types, genetic links, and mechanisms behind pregnancy complications.

Stem cells are the body's ultimate shape-shifters, sustaining tissues by balancing two competing demands: maintaining their ...

Fruit color is a key trait influencing consumer preference, nutritional value, and market competitiveness, yet the molecular ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret about our DNA: it’s not a static blueprint, but a constantly shifting, folding ...

Langone researchers discovered that oral herpes viruses loosen the centers of cells in order to replicate more effectively in a host cell. In their March study, researchers including first author Nora ...

This video presents a conceptual "map of reality" with eleven nested levels, exploring everything from everyday experiences to the deepest known physics, as well as concepts of life, consciousness, ...

Researchers have found hundreds of metabolic enzymes attached to human DNA inside the cell nucleus. Different tissues and cancers show unique patterns of these enzymes, forming a “nuclear metabolic ...

At the dawn of complex life, evolution created a container for DNA, its most treasured item. A few billion years later, 20th-century microscopists looked at this container — the nucleus — up close and ...

Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current. That mismatch has bothered solar researchers for more than a decade. Silicon ...

Researchers at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland), in cooperation with national and international research groups, have shown that DNA viruses infect cells and take over the host cell nucleus, ...
