All cells need to sense and respond to their environment, to know when to activate genes, build proteins, and carry out their basic functions. One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how ...

Cells in the body have to move around in order to do their jobs. During development, for instance, cells are distributed to create and grow tissue. And in the event of an immune response, different ...

For the roughly 30,000 Americans living with hemophilia and thousands more with rare enzyme deficiencies, treatment often ...

Researchers have uncovered a critical, previously underappreciated role for B cells in vaccine protection. Best known for producing antibodies, B cells also guide other immune cells, specifically CD8 ...

Orthopedic non-invasive stem cell therapy regenerates damaged tissue rather than just improving symptoms. Autologous stem cell therapy uses cells from your own body, minimizing rejection risks.

When you were first conceived, you were a single cell. From this basic fact, we can extrapolate a few things, most especially that all the cells that make up your body today came (indirectly) from ...

Doctors and scientists have long relied on microscopes to study human tissue and diagnose disease. But today's medical research produces far more information than the human eye alone can handle, ...

Our work shows how high-affinity B cells can bank really advantageous mutations by essentially cloning themselves rather than continuing to mutate. Perhaps we will soon be able to tailor vaccines to ...

All cells need to sense and respond to their environment—to know when to activate genes, build proteins and carry out their basic functions. One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they ...
