A new Review reveals how aging can push the immune system into a paradoxical state, weaker against threats yet more prone to attacking the body’s own tissues.

Full-body defense does not always look the way textbooks say it should. In planarian flatworms, a newly identified cell type ...

Scientists at City of Hope have uncovered a gene called SMOC1 that plays a surprising role in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) by converting pancreatic cells that normally produce insulin into ...

Understanding how wounds heal after injury could be a step closer thanks to a new mathematical model developed by researchers at the University of Bristol. The study, published in Physical Review ...

People need to sleep, and sleep deprivation can cause many changes in the brain. But we have a poor understanding of why sleep is so crucial. New research has examined a fruit fly model to assess how ...

Researchers have a new hypothesis for how brain cells called astrocytes might contribute to memory storage in the brain. Their model, known as dense associative memory, would help explain the brain's ...

Despite improvements in therapies, multiple myeloma (MM) is a disease that will always relapse. Why is this? What is the key to finding effective therapies to cure MM? Evan Newell, a Professor in the ...

Researchers at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and UNSW Sydney have discovered why some people with celiac disease continue to suffer debilitating symptoms despite strictly avoiding gluten.
