A hidden clue may explain why some mutated cells become cancerous and others don’t: how fast they divide. A new study from researchers at Sinai Health in Toronto reveals that the total time it takes ...

Left: Normal cell division with the chromosomes (blue) lined up and ready to be pulled into two separate daughter cells by the two centrosomes (green). Right: In faulty cell division, too many ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it activates other proteins involved in this process. Plk1 is also ...

Biomolecular condensates were long believed to be simple liquid blobs inside cells. Researchers have now uncovered that some are actually supported by fine protein filaments forming an internal ...

Researchers at UCLA have found a way to supercharge immune cells with a fuel source that tumors can't steal, dramatically ...

Small, cancer-associated DNA circles "hitchhike" on chromosomes during cell division to spread efficiently to daughter cells by co-opting a process used to maintain cellular identity through ...

In a new study published in the journal Nature Genetics, Haolong Li, PhD, a researcher at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, and colleagues developed a way to monitor androgen receptor levels inside living ...

New findings reveal that succinate signaling through SUCNR1 acts as a protective brake in acute myeloid leukemia. Modulating ...
