Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in preclinical models tested in mice.

This is called photosynthesis. The basic structure of a plant cell is shown below. Photosynthesis relies on many structures in the cell all working together, each playing its role. The diagram ...

Cancer stem cells are rare immortal cells within a tumour that can both self-renew by dividing and give rise to many cell types that constitute the tumour, and can therefore form tumours.

Feb. 6, 2025 — A study has identified key genetic pathways in corn that help its roots branch out to find water in soil; the varieties adapted to temperate regions like the U.S. corn belt showed ...

Many cells in multicellular organisms are specialised. They have specific roles in the organism of which they are part. Their structure is adapted to their function. They are often grouped ...

The stability of Pt-based catalysts is critical to the reliability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Here, the authors use stroboscopic operando high energy X-ray scattering to reveal Pt ...

Audubon’s native plants database draws its plant data from the North American Plant Atlas of the Biota of North America Program (BONAP).
