Researchers have mimicked the effects of exercise on heart organoids, maturing the cells to make them behave more like adult heart tissue.

A potential treatment for glioblastoma crafted by scientists at The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute renders the deadly brain cancer newly sensitive to both radiation and chemotherapy drugs, and blocks the cancer’s ability to invade other tissues.

A study reveals that genetically altering fat cells in mice to overproduce the hormone FGF21 leads to improved metabolic health, including better blood sugar control and cholesterol levels.

Researchers have discovered a powerful anti-aging pathway in roundworms, revealing how boosting the cells' lysosomes can help clear waste and promote healthy aging.

Thymic crosstalk between T cells and the thymus during T-cell priming shapes how the thymus grows and shapes itself.

Researchers have induced a senescent-like state in worms, providing a model to explore how senescence can be triggered and overcome.

The Perturb-Multi method combines imaging and sequencing to study gene function in intact tissue. By analyzing liver tissue from genetically modified mice, the team discovered new mechanisms involved in liver fat accumulation.

An engineered protein turns off the kind of immune cells most likely to damage tissue as part of type 1 diabetes, hepatitis and multiple sclerosis, shows a new study in mice.

Inflammation, long considered a hallmark of aging, may not be a universal human experience, according to a new study from Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health.
