Research led by the SickKids Research Institute in Toronto and the University of Pennsylvania, has found that immune-related ...

Metabolism, far from being just a housekeeping function, underlies all changes in cell size and function ...

New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...

Indiana University School of Medicine researchers have made significant progress in understanding how cells communicate during inflammation. The study, recently published in PNAS, was conducted over a ...

Two-way communication between cancer cells appears to be key to their becoming motile, clustering and spreading through metastasis, according to Rice University scientists. Members of Rice's Center ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have uncovered new insights into how intercellular "glue" functions to enable interactions between cells, as detailed in a study published in Nature Communications.

Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed two powerful computational tools that could transform how researchers study the "conversations" between cells inside the body. The tools, called ...

The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

The study revealed the small-molecule signaling system for mammalian cell-cell communication that combines super-sensitivity with a chassis-friendly, low-burden design, and demonstrated the system's ...

New evidence of electrical power generation on cell membranes could offer insights into how living cells interact with their ...

Researchers developed a biosensing technique that eliminates the need for wires. Instead, tiny, wireless antennas use light to detect minute electrical signals in the solution around them. Monitoring ...

A team led by Simon Haas has developed a technology to decode how immune cells talk to each other – revealing how our bodies respond to infections, how miscommunication can trigger autoimmune diseases ...
