A new study published in Nature Communications shows that human glial progenitor cells are a promising and safe cell product ...
While the process via which different types of neurons are produced, also known as neurogenesis, has been the focus of numerous neuroscience studies, its genetic and biological underpinnings in humans ...
Current therapies for rheumatoid arthritis rely on sustained immunosuppression rather than restoration of immune tolerance, with off-drug remission remaining rare. Recent anecdotal reports suggest ...
Every second, millions of blood cells travel through your body, carrying oxygen, fighting infections, and helping keep you alive. But according to a new study, these cells have a much older story than ...
A human female is born with all the egg cells she will ever have. The possibility for the development of new oocytes is zero. Given this constraint, it is crucial that these gametes remain healthy and ...
Traditional electrotaxis assays place electrodes directly into the cell culture medium, which inevitably drives current through the sample.
Research from an international team finds that the human gut is a site of rapid change, with recent and important deviations from other mammals, including our closest living relative, the chimpanzee.
Every human cell wears a sugary shell. This outer coat, called the glycocalyx, is built from chains of sugar molecules that ...
DNA can voyage along intercellular highways called tunneling nanotubes. It’s a phenomenon that could potentially spread tumor DNA to healthy cells.
