Scientists have attempted to map the human cell since the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. But many components of the cell still remain uncharted. " We know each of the proteins ...

The brains of humans and other mammals contain a vast array of neuronal and non-neuronal cell types. The human capacity to process information into complex emotions, behaviours and decisions relies on ...

Mount Sinai researchers have published the first organ-wide human skin spatial atlas from across the body. It provides an ...

In a demonstration that could help pave the way for gene therapies with fewer side effects, several human cell types have ...

In a bid to better understand, and potentially treat, a host of conditions that affect early cognition, neurodevelopment and ...

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 ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...

A new predictive AI system has been developed to predict gene activity in human cells with high precision. Researchers at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, led by Raul ...
