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 ...
The problem of cell type became clear to genome biologist Jason Buenrostro in 2013. He was studying a cell line derived from someone with cancer, trying to map out how the DNA was arranged in the ...
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 ...
Cell therapy is an advanced biomedical approach that utilizes living cells as therapeutic agents to treat disease or repair tissue. 4 Scientists isolate cells from a patient or a healthy donor and ...
A new CRISPR screen method developed at Scripps Research has the potential to improve studies into the genetic underpinnings of human diseases and disorders. The method was outlined in Cell, in a ...
Researchers at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) have found that two of the most frequently administered stem cell therapies, which are often used interchangeably, actually contain ...
