Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

Imdelltra is associated with improvement in overall survival compared to local standard-of-care chemotherapy among patients with small cell lung cancer.

VQ Biomedical, spun out of Duke University, has developed a novel, minimally invasive catheter designed to deliver oxygen directly to the bloodstream. The catheter bypasses the lungs, giving ARDS ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Researchers have discovered that 'DEAD-box helicases 54 (DDX54)', a type of RNA-binding protein, is the master regulator that hinders the effectiveness of immunotherapy -- opening a new path for lung ...

Imagine a super-charged immune cell that can launch a focused attack on stubborn solid tumors -- a smart fighter that destroys cancer cells for days without tiring. Biomedical engineers have made this ...

Basal stem cells taken from the upper part of a patient’s respiratory tract can be expanded in the lab and then transplanted back into their lungs to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), ...

These cells predominantly mediate antigen presentation and processing pathways in vivo, contributing to PCV2d-driven inflammatory lung injury. Discussion: Our data uncovered a complex unique immune ...

Murphy wasn’t involved, but his own research with plant cells – which the tiniest microplastics can infiltrate, and damage the organs involved in photosynthesis – has him worried.

Researchers found that aggressive lung cancer cells can develop an independent electrical network, enabling them to fuel their own growth and spread, similar to neural activity. They also discovered ...

This was a mighty challenge. The cells kept dying. Paleontologist Kyoko Hagino of Kochi University tried for twelve years until she finally cracked it with a cousin of the original organism.
