Across various classes, the researchers identified a model that, when coupled with appropriate data augmentation and optimization partner, may help aid in the detection of skin cancer. Using an ...

Every cell in a body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Converting one type of cell to another — for example, a skin cell to a neuron — can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a “pluripotent” stem cell, ...

Researchers have traced a cellular route Ebola virus (EBOV) uses to traverse the inner and outer layers of skin and emerge onto the skin's surface. The study identifies new cell types within the skin ...

VC is known for its antioxidant properties in the skin and has been previously shown to boost collagen synthesis. Now, the same team of researchers has taken this a step further, using advanced ...

Using participant skin cells reprogrammed into neurons, Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have identified genetic signatures ...

Perhaps best known as a immune-system boost or antidote to scurvy, vitamin C has been found to rejuvenate aging skin by reactivating genes responsible for cell growth. By promoting DNA demethylation, ...

"We've known that senescent skin cells are different from senescent immune cells or senescent muscle cells. But within a cell type, senescent cells are often considered the same -- in essence, skin ...

The skin acts as the body's first line of defense against external threats. However, as we age, the epidermis—the outermost layer of skin—gradually becomes thinner and loses its protective strength.
