Study shows cells respond quickly to small, light-induced movements in the microenvironment
Microscopic image of the epithelial cells used in the study, the cytoskeleton (magenta) and nuclei (cyan) of the cell are ...
With modification, CAR T cells can attack senescent cells, leading to slower aging in mice
Senescent cells (blue) accumulate with age. CAR T cells can be programmed to seek out and destroy them. The image ...
