Gene expression reveals that different types of human cell can work as a unit. These cellular modules, found in several tissues, change during disease. However, suitable computational methods are ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions took a closer look at how the gastrointestinal ...

Researchers have created a way to guide and control the development of stem cells into specific tissues and organs, opening the door to developing a means of one day tackling complex diseases like ...

Genes aren't the sole driver instructing cells to build multicellular structures, tissues, and organs. In a new paper published in Nature Communications, USC Stem Cell scientist Leonardo Morsut and ...

Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news updates. Now, MIT engineers have found that this "intercellular" fluid plays a major role in how tissues respond when squeezed, pressed, or ...

Penn State researchers have developed a technique they call “cellular snowballing,” in which lab-grown cells mixed with ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

The spread of tumour from the primary cancer site to distant organs, called metastasis, has puzzled scientists for many years – they are only now beginning to pinpoint triggers and mechanisms that ...

Aging does not arrive all at once. It builds quietly across years, touching cells long before symptoms appear.

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

Scientists have created the most detailed map to date, comprised of over 3 million cells, showing how breast tissue changes ...
