Researchers have developed a new computational approach that uncovers possible drugs for specific cellular targets for ...

In the battle against type 1 diabetes (T1D), one researcher at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) is leading a ...

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 study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — ...

Computational biologists have uncovered how RNA splicing -- a crucial process for isoform expression and protein diversity -- is regulated across different cell types in the peripheral blood. This ...

A study led by researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center found that normal cells surrounding a tumor, known as cancer-associated ...

Stem cell therapy is an emerging treatment for type 2 diabetes. Although it’s not yet FDA-approved in the United States, it is a rapidly expanding and promising field of research. Stem cells are ...

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 ...

A Vertex Pharmaceuticals cell therapy for type 1 diabetes is enabling patients to produce insulin, eliminating the need for additional insulin therapy in the vast majority of participants in a key ...

Some types of sickle cell disease cause severe illness, while others have a mild or unapparent course. Sickle cell disease is present from birth and inherited from genes you receive from your parents.

Cell culture is a fundamental technique in biotechnology and life sciences that involves growing and maintaining living cells outside their natural environment, typically in a controlled laboratory ...
