Researchers simulated nearly every molecule in a bacterial cell — and then watched the cell grow and reproduce.

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life reconstructions ever created. Using computer technology, scientists have ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...

New research finds that extreme heat accelerates biological aging, especially in older adults. Living in hotter areas can age body faster.

A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...

Until now, conventional 3D cell cultures have often been either too rigid or too unstable to realistically reproduce the ...

Over the past few years, a new class of medications has transformed the treatment of obesity. Drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro work primarily by reducing appetite, helping people eat less and ...

The first cell rejuvenation therapy is set to enter clinics, testing if aging cells can be reset to a younger, healthier ...

Researchers have found hundreds of metabolic enzymes attached to human DNA inside the cell nucleus. Different tissues and cancers show unique patterns of these enzymes, forming a “nuclear metabolic ...

Researchers create the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the fruit fly brain, revealing how lineage and birth order define neuronal identity.

Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in ...
