A new study describes a technique that rejuvenates aging blood-forming stem cells and could help reduce the risk of age-related blood disorders.

Learn more about the impact ultramarathon running has on red blood cells and how it may do more harm than good for the body.

Cell-to-cell junctions were visualized by ZO1-GFP, and the dynamics of cell junctions were captured by movies. When the cells indicated by * were spontaneously stretched, a continuous belt of cell ...

Moreover, bulk sequencing data led scientists to conclude that brown and beige fat cells express uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1), which encodes the protein UCP1 that halts adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ...

Men tend to lose the Y chromosome from their cells as they age. But because the Y bears few genes other than for male ...
