This study marks the first discovery of so-called “good” prion-like proteins in human cells and the first to find such proteins involved in innate immunity:…
The study, done in cell lines and mice, may lead to methods of reprogramming a patient’s own cardiac myocytes within the heart itself to create new muscle to…
Our bodies are perfectly capable of renewing billions of cells every day but fail miserably when it comes to replacing damaged organs such as kidneys. Using…
Fusion proteins are created by two genes — originally coding for separate proteins — joining together. Translation of the fusion gene into an active protein…
