Prof. Fang-Jen S. Lee's team at National Taiwan University has discovered that an intermediate cellular metabolism molecule, glycerol, regulates the localization and function of the Golgi protein Imh1 ...

A new study by researchers at Karolinska Institutet (KI) demonstrates how extracellular vesicles (EVs) activate the immune system in mice and seem to make their tumors sensitive to a checkpoint ...

Scientists from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have developed an in-vitro vesicle formation assay, shedding light on cargo ...

Findings identify strategy for boosting anticancer immunity and potentially a new tool for delivering genetic payloads to ...

Nano-sized membrane bubbles known as extracellular vesicles activate the immune system in mice and seem to render their tumors sensitive to a type of immunotherapy drug called a checkpoint inhibitor.

Imaging live cells is key to reveal their inner workings, dynamics, and function. Current technological advances in confocal imaging can benefit from novel fluorescence labeling strategies and ...

Activated immune cells secrete tiny capsules bearing DNA that can enter other immune and tumor cells to stimulate the body's defense systems, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell ...

Extracellular vesicles released by mesenchymal stromal cells are widely studied as cell-free therapies because they deliver microRNAs that regulate inflammation, angiogenesis and tissue repair.

Antibiotic resistance is making bacterial infections harder to treat, demanding new therapeutic strategies. A new review ...

In a new study, researchers have succeeded in creating artificial cell organelles and using them for their own devised biochemical reactions. Cells of higher organisms use cell organelles to separate ...
