For the first time, researchers have shown that they can deliver those same reprogramming genes using RNA, the genetic material that normally ferries instructions from DNA to the cell's protein-making ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo has received a $1.5 million grant from the United States Department of Defense to develop new therapies that help reduce chronic inflammation and ...

Scientists say they’ve come up with a way for the body to produce its own store of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is the naturally produced hormone whose function is being mimicked by drugs ...

Long-term memory of specific places is stored in the brain in so-called place cells. Neuroscientists have now 'reprogrammed' such place cells in free-roaming mice, by sending electrical impulses ...

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -- When the immune system is imbalanced, either due to overly-active cells or cells that suppress its function, it causes a wide range of diseases, from psoriasis to cancer. By ...

Daily orange juice has long been sold as a simple breakfast habit, but new research suggests it may be doing far more than topping up vitamin C. Scientists now report that a regular glass could ...

Researchers have turned skin cells into blood vessel tissue to save a mouse's wounded leg. They were able to do that simply by tapping the wound with a chip that uses nanotechnology to inject new DNA ...

Four proteins that can transform adult cells into embryonic-like ones can also turn back the aging clock, a new study in mice suggests. Partial reprogramming of cells within prematurely aging mice’s ...
