When tested on their own and in mice, these bacterial strains from the human microbiome show promise in accumulating PFAS ...

Scientists have developed a technique that aligns stem cells into a single sheet, resulting in a marked increase in the secretion of signaling proteins which help repair tissue and regulate the immune ...

Researchers have identified gut bacteria that can absorb toxic "forever chemicals" in lab mice, according to a new study, ...

New drugs that target "zombie" tuberculosis (TB) cells are now a step closer, thanks to a new study led by the University of ...

Washington State University researchers have discovered how the bacteria that cause anaplasmosis and Lyme disease hijack ...

Such detection speed is the result of combining ML and UV absorbance spectroscopy to detect microbial contamination in cell therapy products.

Mitochondria are not just the powerhouses of the cell – they are the immune system’s watchtowers, alert to even the faintest metabolic signals of bacterial invaders. As researchers’ understanding of ...

This article focuses on a microsized microbial solar cell (MSC) that can produce sustainable energy through photosynthetic reactions of cyanobacteria Synechocystis PCC 6803 in the anode. The MSC has ...

The drug and the genetic drains each slashed ATP, but rather than slowing down, the bacteria revved up. Respiration soared, and the cells spewed extra reactive‑oxygen molecules that can damage DNA.

There are 890 freshwater ponds on Cape Cod. Testing for cyanobacteria occurs each summer in about 150 of them, according to one nonprofit.

Whole-cell cancer vaccines can trigger broader-spectrum antitumoral immune responses. However, a lack of immunogenicity and unclear interactions with antigen-presenting cells (APCs) hinder their ...
