For over a century, scientists have wrestled with one of biology’s most fundamental mysteries: how the first animals evolved.

New research has found that a key component of valuable supercapacitor energy storage devices can be made with waste peel ...

To address this challenge, decellularized extracellular matrix-based scaffolds recellularized with stem cells offer significant advancements in skin regeneration and wound healing. Herein, a ...

Very few cells within primary tumours are motile, and these move rapidly with an amoeboid morphology. Metastatic cells are better at entering the blood vessels and withstanding shear stress than ...

At the same dose of 0.5 mg/mL, MLPE exhibited 1.5-fold potency than MLE in decreasing the formation of foam cells. Both MLE and MLPE reduced the expression of PPARγ, CD36 and SR-A, implicating the ...

Some mattress brands try to mitigate this effect by using what they call “open-cell” foam to increase airflow or by infusing their foam with cooling gels meant to regulate temperature.

This parasite wears pieces of dead human cells to evade the body’s immune system, making it difficult for us to fight an invasion. In 2022, Ralston discovered a major reason behind the parasite’s ...

Carbon Cell has raised a £1.2m pre-seed round to scale its novel, plastic-free foam made from biochar and natural polymers Founded by Imperial alumni Elizabeth Lee, Ori Blich, Eden Harrison and Juan ...

In a series of later studies, she discovered that this amoeba kills cells through a process called "trogocytosis"; after it's done chewing on human cells, it wears the remains as a disguise to ...

Entamoeba histolytica is a single-cell parasite that causes intestinal disease, but sometimes invades the body, attacking cells and creating liquefying abscesses. UC Davis parasitologist Katherine ...

The effect of Lenti-SR-PSOXsi on foam cell formation was assessed by Oil red O-stain analysis. Ox-LDL increased the expression of SR-PSOX/CXCL16 mRNA in a time- and dose-dependent manner in THP-1 ...
