The epithelium, a layer of cells that forms a protective barrier between the body and the outside world, was the first ...

Scientists have advanced human-animal chimera research by successfully growing human cells within the organs of mice. This development could bring experts closer to the goal of custom-growing human ...

Growing inside each of us is a cellular family tree. Every one of the 37 trillion cells in our body is generated from another ...

Researchers in Madrid have developed an in vitro stimulation model showing that B cells from patients with common variable ...

A pan-cancer single-cell atlas of nearly 900,000 cells shows that bone metastases from ten cancer types share convergent ...

On 26 November, an experiment in a sounding rocket was launched at Esrange Space Center in Kiruna, Sweden, by a research group at the Department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology (MTC) at ...

Japanese researchers used CRISPR-Cas9 to remove the extra chromosome 21 from cells in a lab. It’s a real breakthrough — but ...

In the lab, it's easier to grow simple balls of cells than complex asymmetrical structures with two distinct ends—like the one million filtering units—nephrons—that make up a human kidney. But new ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized modern biology, allowing scientists to study the expression of genes from thousands of individual cells at the same time. This technique helps ...

New research shows it's possible to reprogram skin cells into eggs that can be fertilized in the lab, though it's just a proof of concept for now. Reading time 3 minutes A team of scientists has ...
