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 ...

Mount Sinai and BPGbio scientists uncover novel molecular drivers from live brain samples that direct human brain structure and function from ...

Explore the vital role of bone marrow stem cells. Learn how they drive bone remodeling, immunity, and skeletal health in this complete guide.

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 ...

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 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 ...

Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

Knowing which lysosomal proteins are enriched in which brain cell types will help better understand contribution to neurological disorders.

Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and ...

Not all brain cells are found in the brain. For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion.
