Within the realm of genetic regulation, chromatin modifications such as histone methylation and acetylation play pivotal roles in the transcriptional control of genes. Disruptions in these processes ...
Researchers develop a platform that uses nanotechnology to safely and reliably exchange intracellular material.
Now, following up on that success, a large Chinese collaboration has followed up with a description of an improved gene ...

Cells naturally exchange cytoplasmic components like proteins, RNA, and mitochondria, but scientists lack tools to control ...
Cells are not isolated units; they continuously exchange proteins, genetic material, and even entire organelles with their ...
CAR T cells are patient-derived, genetically engineered immune cells. They are "living drugs" and constitute a milestone in modern medicine. Equipping T cells, a key cell type of the immune system, ...
Directly transferring healthy mitochondria or cytoplasmic components into target cells is particularly relevant for regenerative medicine.
Why are some people unable to hear from birth, even though their inner ear appears intact? One possible cause lies in the ...
