Universal gene‑edited CAR‑T therapies turn donor T cells into off‑the‑shelf cancer treatments, cutting delays and costs while ...

Life’s fundamental structure is the cell, and so the main things that a cell does — processing biomolecules, growing, replicating its genetic material and producing a new body — are considered ...

A small but enthusiastic group of neuroscientists is exhuming overlooked experiments and performing new ones to explore whether cells record past experiences — fundamentally challenging what memory is ...

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

Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin. We ...

Imagine if our bodies could grow new organs throughout our entire lives. Plants do this constantly, thanks to tiny, powerful reservoirs of stem cells. But how do these cells know when to divide, and ...

医学史上有个令人困惑的现象 癌症患者罹患阿尔茨海默症风险 显著降低 这一"反常" 长期让科学家百思不得其解 两种看似不相关的疾病 为何出现如此奇特的负相关？ 基于此现象 华中科技大学 基础医学院鲁友明团队 提出"肿瘤分泌因子可能抑制 阿尔茨海默症"的创新假设 ...

How do stem cells know what to become? Nearly three decades after scientists isolated the first human embryonic stem cells, researchers are still working hard to understand precisely how a single, ...

This article is part of “Innovations In: Sickle Cell Disease,” an editorially independent special report that was produced with financial support from Vertex Pharmaceuticals. Nathan Wood is 15, lanky ...
