The development of humans and other animals unfolds gradually over time, with cells taking on specific roles and functions ...

T cell development is a tightly regulated process that transforms immature thymocytes into mature T cells with distinct functionalities. In the thymus, precursor cells undergo a series of selection ...

The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across ...

What do cells want to be when they grow up, and how do they get there? Intrigued by these questions, many developmental biologists try to follow the journeys of cells from when they can virtually ...

Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

How do you currently identify and select cells for further growth, characterization and processing? Many available cell-selection technologies lack the sensitivity necessary to preserve cell health ...

Two new landmark studies show how a seeming tangle of DNA is actually organized into a structure that coordinates thousands of genes to form a sperm cell. The work, published March 3 as two papers in ...

In a recent study published in Communications Biology, researchers explored the intricacies between life and sound, investigating the impact of acoustic stimulation on cell behavior. Sound waves ...
