Aged and frail people often suffer a decline in tissue reserve capacity during aging. This reserve, called resilience, helps ...

Recent studies have uncovered a fascinating link between dark chocolate consumption and stem cell activation. Dark chocolate with a cocoa content of over 70 percent has been shown to activate stem ...

Scientists discover that muscles repair themselves by moving thousands of internal nuclei, a rapid process that is key after ...

In a recent study published in Immunology, researchers investigated populations of regulatory T cells (Treg), a type of white blood cell, in various tissues. Study: The tissue-resident regulatory T ...

A research team has successfully identified a novel DNA damage repair pathway in human cells. This study is the first to discover that proteins present in the nuclear membrane of cells directly ...

The CEMIP enzyme inhibits the growth of oligodendrocytes and may serve as a therapeutic target to boost myelin repair in MS, ...

New research from the Kind Group at the Hubrecht Institute sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human ...

Aging has long been seen as a natural, unstoppable part of life. From the moment we're born, our bodies transform — first through growth, then through gradual decline. Over time, stamina wanes, ...

DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

DNA can be damaged by normal cellular processes as well as external factors such as UV radiation and chemicals. Such damage can lead to breaks in the DNA strand. If DNA damage is not properly repaired ...
