Macrophage Role in Infection Determined by PI-3 Kinase-Gamma Signaling
Cancer researchers have identified a molecule responsible for the signal that converts macrophages from an inflammatory, immunostimulatory mode in acute infections to an anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive mode that supports tumor development and growth. More...29 Sep 2016


3D Bioengineering Generates Lung Tissue for Personalized Disease Modeling
Lung disease researchers have developed a novel three-dimensional (3D) culture method for transforming stem cells into lung-like tissue that can be used to study diseases including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which has traditionally been difficult to study using conventional methods.

Protein Linked to Destruction of Mitochondria in Huntington's Disease
Researchers studying the molecular mechanisms involved in Huntington's disease (HD) have identified a protein that binds to mutant huntingtin protein in the mitochondria of neurons, which results in destruction of the mitochondria and death of the nerve cells. More...28 Sep 2016

New Approach Yields Stable Neural Stem Cell Lines for Neuroscience Research
A team of neurosciences researchers developed a faster and more stable technique for establishing stable human induced neural stem cell (hiNSC) lines through the direct reprogramming of neonatal fibroblasts and adult adipose-derived stem cells. More...27 Sep 2016
