In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a ...

A stem-cell-based "organ-on-a-chip" model of ALS mimics early biological changes seen in the degenerative disease.

A major challenge in cardiac tissue engineering is the delivery of hemodynamic mechanical cues that play a critical role in the early development and maturation of cardiomyocytes. Generation of ...

Cell transportation is a key step in many biological applications. Currently, most cell transportation research relies on microscopic vision feedback, which limits its application at places when a ...

The in vitro oxygen microenvironment profoundly affects the capacity of cell cultures to model physiological and pathophysiological states. Cell culture is often considered to be hyperoxic, but ...

Thus, although no single cell culture system or animal model is ideal for studying all features of HBV hepatitis, researchers are developing imaginative and novel animal models that are designed ...

Memory CD4 T cells within tissues are highly dynamic, and their continuous replacement may erode immunity to previous infections.

Using stem cells from patients with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), Cedars-Sinai has created a lifelike model of the mysterious and fatal disease that could help identify a cause of the ...
