Nov. 26, 2024 — Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new ...

A precancerous cell is a cell with certain abnormalities that makes it more likely to become cancerous. These abnormalities don't mean that it will become cancer—in fact, most don't—but the diagnosis ...

researchers demonstrated how varying cell densities influence the organization of mouse cells into complex patterns. “This paper represents progress towards our big picture goal of engineering ...

Dec. 2, 2024 — Eating a diet with a higher ratio of plant-based protein to animal-based protein may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and coronary heart disease (CHD), according to ...

Mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent adult stem cells that are present in multiple tissues, including umbilical cord, bone marrow and fat tissue. Mesenchymal stem cells can self-renew by ...

Tanmay Lele, joint faculty in chemical engineering, and chemical engineering Ph.D candidate Ting-Ching Wang proves that the mechanical stiffness of tissue can alter the fate of tumor cell populations.

“In addition to drastically improving print speed, our approach enables a degree of cell positioning within printed tissues. Incorrect cell positioning is a big reason most 3D bioprinters fail ...
