King's College London researchers have created a unique collection of human stem cell models that could help to uncover why ...

The result is a problem we rarely discuss openly: research that looks promising in animals but collapses when applied to humans. Time is lost. Resources are wasted. Patients wait longer for answers ...

“For many cell-based therapies, progress comes from connecting the right pieces at the right moment,” Klein said. “When ...

In a recent study, researchers manipulated cellular proteins that control genes in aged mice. Experimental results showed their livers were rejuvenated to younger states. This work shows promise as a ...

Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...

SeekGene, a biotechnology company focused on "driving the development and democratization of innovative single-cell technologies", announced it has officially joined the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) ...

When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells. The spindle is the machinery behind that process: It latches onto ...
