The scope of human cell type atlases widened considerably today. Formerly, landscapes of individual cell types were largely confined to single organs. But now, thanks to four single-cell RNA ...

Genetic studies have revealed many genes linked to both common and rare disease, but to understand how those genes bring about disease and use those insights to help develop therapies, scientists need ...

An international team of researchers reached a major milestone in decoding the human genome by linking genes across all chromosome of many individual people to specific tissues and disease processes.

Nucleic acid extraction from biological samples is inherently difficult to execute consistently across different tissue types. Some tissue matrices are fibrous, contained in protective cell walls, or ...

Researchers at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute have demonstrated that combining data from different origins ...

The average adult male has around 36 trillion cells in their body, while average adult females have 28 trillion, researchers have found. Unexpectedly, the mass of small cells in our bodies, such as ...

In a Nutshell Researchers mapped more than 3 million cells from 527 women aged 15 to 86 and found that breast tissue ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

The Suspended Tissue Open Microfluidic Patterning, or STOMP device, is small enough to fit on a fingertip, and is expected to advance human tissue modeling for research on a variety of complex ...

In a recent study published in Immunology, researchers investigated populations of regulatory T cells (Treg), a type of white blood cell, in various tissues. Study: The tissue-resident regulatory T ...
