Researchers found that loss of GATA6 reprograms colorectal cancer cells into flexible, fetal-like states that can spread to ...

University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have revealed how mistakes in the final step of cell division can have dire consequences for developing brain cells. The findings offer important ...

In a paper published in Cell, a USC Stem Cell-led team reports a new way of generating a renewable and expandable supply of the progenitor cells that give rise to macrophages. These immune cells help ...

For almost 60 years, scientists have tried to understand why DNA doesn’t replicate wildly and uncontrollably every time a cell divides – which they need to do constantly. Without this process, we ...

A common pathway to cancer is when a protein responsible for fixing DNA mutations is itself non-functional. [Getty Images] Many people know that the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do ...

Two key routes to duplication In a new study, researchers at Hokkaido University examined two major ways in which cells fail to divide and undergo whole genome duplication: cytokinesis failure and ...
