New research published in Cancer Discovery suggests that manipulating the pH of pancreatic cancer cells can deter cell growth. The study was conducted by scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys.

There are many differences that help us distinguish healthy cells from cancerous cells—from shape to growth to signaling. Another way is by their pH. The pH in a cancerous cell is not the same as the ...

The inside of a living cell is a surprising patchwork of environments. For example, pH levels can vary dramatically in different organelles, despite them being just a couple hundred nanometers apart.

MANILA, Philippines—In a 1962 experiment, microbiologist Dr. Leonard Hayflick made a grim discovery that human cells grown in tissue culture would only divide a certain number of times, presumably ...

In a first for the condensate field, researchers have figured out how nucleolar sub-structures are assembled. This organization gives rise to unique pH profiles within nucleoli, which they measured ...

Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys have found a new way to kill pancreatic cancer cells by disrupting their pH equilibrium. The study, published in Cancer Discovery, reports how depleting an ion ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have found new evidence in lab-grown mouse brain cells, called astrocytes, that one root of Alzheimer's disease may be a simple imbalance in ...

Oregon Health & Science University researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind method to predict cancer patient survival ...
