Researchers have identified an unexpected mechanism that links age-related stress to the decline of blood-forming stem cells.

How does blood age? A new study identifies the MLKL protein as a non-lethal driver of hematopoietic stem cell aging via ...

One of the hallmarks of cancer cells is their ability to evade apoptosis, or programmed cell death, through changes in protein expression. Inducing apoptosis in cancer cells has become a major focus ...

As we age, our ability to maintain healthy blood and a strong immune system gradually declines, largely because hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), the cells responsible for producing all blood cell ...

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a tightly regulated biological process necessary for normal tissue maintenance and development. However, aberrations in apoptotic signaling networks are ...

After cells die, they leave a residue that sends messages to other cells in ways that are valuable to the immune system. But this process can also be hijacked by viruses such as influenza, according ...
