Northwestern Medicine scientists have zeroed in on a cellular gatekeeper that may hold promise for treating abnormal protein ...

A newly identified mechanism lends credence to the idea that MS may be treatable by targeting EBV-infected B-cells, a study found.

Scientists have developed a new nanoparticle-based strategy that could dramatically expand the range of disease-causing proteins that can be targeted by modern medicine. A newly released perspective i ...

To stay healthy, our cells rely on a self-cleaning mechanism that removes defective or unnecessary components. This process, ...

Study has combined genome-wide data with plasma proteomics from a Ugandan cohort to map hundreds of genetic regulators of ...

Targeted inhibition of a "signal jammer" protein may improve how tumors respond to immunotherapy. Published today in Nature, a new study demonstrates how some cancer cells use the protein ...

Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.

Inside the race to turn one of cell biology’s least understood processes into a new foundation for drug development and ...
