New first-in-human study explores immune-engineered cell therapy approach for type 1 diabe

New research presented at the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) 2026 Annual Meeting explores an approach that could expand the potential of cell replacement therapy for type 1 diabetes by evaluating whether immune-engineered, allogeneic insulin-producing cells

Cancer evolution study reveals biology of glioma progression

A form of glioma, a type of brain cancer, tends to progress toward greater malignancy due to an increasing tendency of glioma cells to transform into immature, stem cell-like states, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine, the New York Genome Center,

High fever could temporarily reduce malaria transmission

The fever experienced by people with malaria exposes parasites to high temperatures within blood cells. This heat can lead to the accumulation of damaged proteins inside the parasite and trigger protective mechanisms against thermal stress.

Novel microenvironment-targeted therapy for bone marrow recovery after injury

A healthy bone marrow (BM) produces nearly all types of cells in our blood. Many blood disorders occur when hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the BM malfunction. Treatment with radiation or chemotherapy for many blood disorders and cancers can, as a side effect, deplete not only

Body's own cell-to-cell messaging packets studied as the basis for next-generation medicin

The Blood and Tissue Bank is studying how to therapeutically manufacture and use a type of nanoparticles released by the body's cells to communicate with one another, in one of the most promising fields of research for the therapies of the future. New medicines and advanced thera

Young blood stem cells rejuvenate aging immune systems in old mice

By freezing your own healthy blood stem cells in your 20s, thawing them and undergoing a stem cell transplant in your 40s or 50s, it might be possible to rejuvenate your blood-forming and immune systems. Science fiction? At least it works when old mice receive healthy blood stem

New insights into neuron–microglia interactions during brain aging

Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have identified small nuclear fragments known as micronuclei while studying neurons in aged mice. They demonstrated that microglia—the brain's resident immune cells—take up these micronuclei, leading to changes in microglial morphology and

Regenerating tissues may rebuild order by amplifying tiny cell differences

FMI researchers and their collaborators have shown how regenerating intestinal tissue turns small initial differences between cells into stable patterns. The findings reveal a general principle for how tissues rebuild order after injury, with possible implications for regenerativ

Dialing back stiffness may protect muscles in myotonic dystrophy

For decades, researchers studying myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) have focused on the disease's underlying genetic cause: a mutation that produces a toxic form of RNA, disrupting the normal processing of thousands of genetic messages inside cells. While scientists have known this

Combination treatment harnesses cellular recycling system to fight multiple myeloma

New research from VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center provides evidence for a combination treatment strategy that uses cells' waste-removal functions to target multiple myeloma. The findings, published recently in Cell Death & Disease, show how an experimental targeted protein

Mediterranean diet compounds may aid nerve cells as brains age, review finds

Natural plant compounds known as polyphenols, found in berries, tea, cocoa, coffee and extra-virgin olive oil, may positively influence biological processes linked to Alzheimer's disease and other disorders characterized by the gradual loss of nerve cells, according to a review b
