Researchers from the Francis Crick Institute have found that some particularly aggressive lung cancer cells can develop their ...

Blood clots form in response to signals from the lungs of cancer patients—not from other organ sites, as previously ...

Scientists uncover an enzyme that boosts cancer cell metabolism to fuel growth. The enzyme, GUK1, supports metabolism in cancer cells to help tumors grow.

Northwestern Medicine is now the nation's highest volume lung transplant center. Doctors say recently adopted technology — a lung refrigerator — will give surgeons more time for the complex procedure.

A New Ventilator-on-a-Chip Model to Study Lung Damage Sep. 19, 2024 — Scientists are now able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the ...

An approach considering stem cell-based therapy of CF-injured lungs should achieve a permanent correction of the CF genetic defect. Lung injury is needed for engraftment of stem cells into the lung.

Scientists led by Olena Taratula, a nanomedicine researcher at Oregon State University, have found a way to better ensure the drug used to combat the disease reaches tumor cells without damaging ...

Stem cell biotechnology is a field of biotechnology ... Optimized lentiviral transduction enhances gene delivery in human iPSC-derived lung organoids, enabling advanced mechanistic studies in ...

Stem-cell differentiation is the process by which a more specialised cell is formed from a stem cell, leading to loss of some of the stem cell's developmental potential. Stem-cell differentiation ...

Many cells in multicellular organisms are specialised. They have specific roles in the organism of which they are part. Their structure is adapted to their function. They are often grouped ...

Animal and plant cells have certain structures in common. Cell structure Function Cytoplasm Where enzymes and other proteins are made. Location of reactions in anaerobic respiration. Nucleus ...
