Can brown fat cells combat obesity?
Credit: Cell Reports (2021). DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2021.110104 UC Davis Health endocrinology researchers are investigating the role of two newly identified molecules that control heat production from fat tissues. Their hope is to discover a better way to combat obesity complications. Assistant Professor of Endocrinology John C. Yoon and his team will study heat-producing fat tissues in
We can use stem cells to make embryos. How far should we go?
This article is from The Checkup, MIT Technology Review's weekly biotech newsletter. To receive it in your inbox every Thursday, sign up here. Embryos are special. These tiny blobs of cells have the potential to create life. That’s why we limit what scientists can do with them. Researchers are generally not allowed to grow human
Can We Program Our Cells?
Making living cells blink fluorescently like party lights may sound frivolous. But the demonstration that it’s possible could be a step toward someday programming our body’s immune cells to attack cancers more effectively and safely. That’s the promise of the field called synthetic biology. While molecular biologists strip cells down to their component genes and
