Viruses are effective tools for delivering genetic material into cells, and scientists have taken advantage of viral transduction in numerous ways, such as constructing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) ...

That’s gene editing. On paper, it is merely the rearrangement of letters. However, the road to editing genes in hopes of a therapeutic benefit is difficult to travel. Additionally, researchers want ...

Adoptive therapies based on CAR/TCR T cells—that is, T cells with an engineered chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) or a T-cell receptor (TCR)—have shown promise for a range of cancers, offering hope to ...

RNA is thought to be a stay-at-home kind of molecule, often comfortably confined within the cell’s interior. So, when RNA molecules were detected on the surface of several cell types, researchers ...

Aged and frail people often suffer a decline in tissue reserve capacity during aging. This reserve, called resilience, helps ...
