A new spatial transcriptomic technology captures RNA patterns without requiring expensive imaging ...

Researchers have developed a near-single-cell resolution spatial transcriptomic approach to study developmentally regulated RNA processes.

Lymphatic muscle cells (LMCs) are indispensable for lymphatic vessel contraction, and their aberrant recruitment or absence is associated with both primary and secondary lymphedema. Despite their ...

The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents flowing through our bodies. We’re used to thinking of the brain as an ...

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan have identified the genes that allow an organism to switch between living as single cells and forming multicellular structures. This ability to alternate ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells taken from only one person. These chips simulate breathing motions and lung ...

The robots, each the size of a single cell, casually turn circles in a bath of water. Suddenly, their sensors detect a change: Parts of the bath are heating up. The microrobots halt their twirls and ...

Irvine, Calif., Dec. 12, 2025 — Leslie M. Thompson, Donald Bren Professor of psychiatry and human behavior as well as neurobiology and behavior at the University of California, Irvine, has received an ...

The traditional American family doesn't look the way it did a generation ago, when there was more likely to be one breadwinner. In two-parent households today, both spouses often work outside the home ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has generated a rapidly expanding collection of public datasets that provide insight into development, disease, and therapy. However, researchers lack an ...

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 ...

Researchers uncovered a powerful weakness in lung cancer by shutting down a protein that helps tumors survive stress. When this protein, FSP1, was blocked, lung tumors in mice shrank dramatically, ...
