Human T-lymphotropic viruses, HTLV, comprise a family of four related retroviruses that affect T-cells, a type of white blood cell. The viruses are thought to have passed from monkeys into humans, and ...

For the first time, scientists have built a detailed, interactive map of a human cell, revealing how thousands of proteins ...

According to three Stanford scientists, lack of human biological material is a “major bottleneck to progress” for medical research. A steadily growing idea is one known as “bodyoids”—biological ...

By mapping the subcellular architecture and protein interactions within cells, researchers can better understand how mutations contribute to pediatric cancers and other conditions.

New research has uncovered more about the complexity of human gene regulation by identifying certain sequences of proteins ...

one cell contributed more to fetal tissue and the other to the placenta. 4 “We know so little about the very early stages of human development,” said Nicolas Plachta, a developmental biologist at the ...

The DNA of human cells consists of a sequence of about 3.1 billion building blocks. Cells go to great lengths to maintain the ...

The work of this thesis has been focused on innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) across human tissues ... there may be some tissue-biased development. In the context of adult respiratory infection, we found ...
