Researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the collaborators developed a novel recombinase-based lineage tracing system. By using this system, they for the first time directly observed the awakening of DTCs after persistent dormancy, and investigated the effect of chemotherapeutic drugs during the process.
Researchers from the Institute of Biophysics, the Grossman School of Medicine at New York University, and the School of Medicine at Zhejiang University have systematically demonstrated that LAG-3 inhibits T cell activity by positioning itself in close proximity to the T cell receptor (TCR) complex, rather than by simply binding to a ligand.
A team of Chinese researchers has uncovered the biological mechanisms behind locust swarming, offering new insights into how humans might intervene in the destructive behavior, according to a recent study published in Nature.
A recent review by Prof. ZHU Bing and Associate Professor XIONG Jun from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reveals how epigenetic regulation not only maintains gene transcriptional states but also "presets" gene expression states well before it is required.
Researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified two new species of flowering plants in the remote forests of Motuo County, Xizang Autonomous Region, highlighting the region’s critical role as a global biodiversity refuge.
Researchers from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Plant Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the collaborators reported that C. militaris infecting silkworm larvae promotes caterpillar feeding and weight gain, which benefits fungal fruiting on fatty and more nutritious pupae.
