For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their ...

Zebrafish can regenerate sensory hair cells that humans permanently lose, like those in the inner ear linked to hearing and balance. New research reveals two specific genes that control how different ...

Every second, millions of blood cells are produced in the human body, and about 90% of the cells replaced daily are blood cells. These include red blood cells essential for oxygen transport, platelets ...

Stem cells age faster and become functionally exhausted in low Earth orbit, making crewed long-duration space travel even more challenging. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

When a rhinovirus, the most frequent cause of the common cold, infects the lining of our nasal passages, our cells work ...

Scientists found that embryonic skin cells “whisper” through faint mechanical tugs, using the same force-sensing proteins that make our ears ultrasensitive. By syncing these micro-movements, the cells ...

A human cell is a Rube Goldberg machine like no other, full of biological chain reactions that make the difference between life and death. Understanding these delicate relationships and how they go ...

Biomedical researchers at Texas A&M University may have discovered a way to stop or even reverse the decline of cellular energy production—a finding that could have revolutionary effects across ...
