A research team has recently made a significant discovery about the evolutionary age of different type of cells in a small animal called Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). By using single-cell ...

Researchers identify new mechanism that teaches immune cells-in-training to spare the body's own tissues while attacking pathogens. As part of this early education, specialized thymus cells 'pose' as ...

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 ...

TEMI mapping of lipid distribution across cerebellar layers. This image shows lipid species specifically enriched in three distinctive layers of the cerebellum: molecular layer, white matter layer and ...

Cardiovascular researchers at UC Davis Health have developed a novel technique that allows scientists to study how the brain communicates with other organs, like the heart or gut. The new method ...

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 ...
