Scientists hoping to discover better ways to boost immune function — which could lengthen our healthspan and protect immunocompromised patients — may have a new target, according to findings published ...

The tissue grafts have the potential to help thousands of Americans on transplant waitlists—amid a shortage of donor livers.

More than 10,000 Americans who suffer from chronic liver disease are on a waitlist for a liver transplant, but there are not ...

A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.

Researchers profiled nearly 7 million individual cells from mice, identifying which cells are most vulnerable to aging and ...

More than 10,000 Americans are waiting for a liver transplant. Many more never make the list, because they are too sick to ...

Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a game plan, and coordinate their defenses in lymphoid organs. Researchers have ...

Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...

Scientists have built a massive cellular atlas showing how aging reshapes the body across 21 organs. Studying nearly 7 million cells, they found that aging starts earlier than expected and unfolds in ...
