New evidence shows that precursors of myelin-producing cells — one of the few #brain cell types that continue to be produced ...

Many of the body's processes slow down or falter as we get older, including tissue regeneration. In a new study, researchers ...

Researchers have developed a new computational approach that uncovers possible drugs for specific cellular targets for treating glioblastoma, a lethal brain tumor. This approach enabled them to ...

The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — long-lived cells that help repair and replace damaged tissue in the lungs — ...

Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the cornea—can heal from minor scratches within a single day. The brain is not one ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand different types of nerve cell in the human brain according to the latest ...

Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

In an interview with Targeted Oncology, George Mulligan, PhD, discussed the key takeaways from analysis of the Immune Atlas ...

A rapid interferon response from nasal epithelial cells induces a cascade of responses during infection, from reduced viral ...

Stem cell therapy uses stem cells or their derivatives to repair and regenerate tissues that have been diseased, damaged, or ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells—one ...
