Researchers at Tulane University have identified a previously unknown mechanism that activates pain signaling in the nervous system, a discovery that could reshape future drug development and offer ...

P-cadherin is a protein commonly found on malignant cancer cells and has been used as a target for antibody-based cancer treatments. UC Davis biomedical engineers have discovered that when an antibody ...

Uncovering the mechanisms behind plant defense signaling can improve strategies to protect crops against disease.

Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead ...

This summer, over 50 researchers in the NSF EMBRIO Institute convened to share their newest findings on cellular signaling and organization that drives wound repair, cellular defense, and organismal ...

Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead ...

A new method exposes key details of the mechanism behind calcium signaling in prokaryotes for the first time. Working in a Listeria monocytogenes model, researchers from Umeå University (Sweden) led ...
