Researchers have identified a metabolically sensitive cell subtype in the eye's drainage system which shows early signs of ...

Each immune cell group has distinct metabolic requirements, activation pathways, and cytokine reliance. Standard, one-size-fits-all media cannot address these features. When studying diverse cell ...

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

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

Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

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

The vertebrate retina is a highly organised neural circuit, comprising diverse cell types that transform light into the complex neural codes underlying vision. At the forefront are photoreceptors, ...

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 ...

Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the ...

Drug discovery is shifting from static snapshots to moving pictures. Instead of inferring how medicines work from end results ...

Teeth function not only because of the hard enamel on the surface, but also because they have roots that anchor them firmly ...
