COLUMBIA, Mo. – Tissue engineering is a process that uses novel biomaterials seeded with stem cells to grow and replace missing tissues. When certain types...
Transplantation of genetically modified cells carrying a transgene has a greater stimulating effect on the regeneration of post-traumatic central nervous system. During spinal cord injury,...
The prevailing hypothesis has suggested that the the functions of DNA, such as the way the DNA is organized, largely depend on its interactions with...
Blue on, yellow off: using different-coloured light, researchers are able to switch signalling pathways in the brain on and off. Researchers in Bochum have utilised...
Newcastle scientists and medics have developed a new type of genetic blood test that diagnoses scarring in the liver – even before someone may feel...
Using your skin as a touchscreen has been brought a step closer after UK scientists successfully created tactile sensations on the palm using ultrasound sent...
Like jewels in a vault, our precious genetic material is stored in the nucleus of a cell–sequestered away from potentially damaging cellular components and toxins...
Boston — Blood-contacting implantable medical devices, such as stents, heart valves, ventricular assist devices, and extracorporeal support systems, as well as vascular grafts and access...
Throughout our cells, materials are continuously transported via tiny packets called vesicles. This process is called intracellular trafficking and it is crucial for the normal...
New, ultra-high-field magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the brain by researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago provide the most detailed images to date...
Researchers in Japan have found, for the first time in vertebrates, a genetic switch that determines whether germ cells become sperm or eggs. The gene...
A team of researchers led by the University of Cambridge has described for the first time in humans how the epigenome – the suite of...
A new study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine found that synchronized physiological interactions between remote brain regions have genetic underpinnings. The...
