Our immune systems weaken as we get older, making fewer cells that fight infection and help us recover from illness and ...

New research shows Glycolysis -- the process of converting sugar into energy -- plays a key role in early development. More than fuel, Glycolysis doesn't just power cells -- it helps steer them toward ...

Fifty years since its discovery, scientists have finally worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria allows us ...

“Metabolism is more than just housekeeping in stem cells, especially embryonic stem cells,” said Jan Żylicz, a developmental biologist at the University of Copenhagen. “It’s a crucial pathway that ...

Researchers are studying why the energy factories are moving between cells and whether the process can be harnessed to treat ...

"UCLA scientists have now identified a small molecule that, when prompted, can waken long-slumbering but undamaged follicles, ...

Metformin, a widely used and affordable diabetes drug, could prevent a form of acute myeloid leukemia in people at high risk ...

After more than five decades of mystery, scientists have finally unveiled the detailed structure and function of a ...
