The brain is a complicated network of connections and functions, but its inner machinations remain an enigma. In a huge collaborative effort, researchers profiled millions of cells to chart a cellular ...

Using spatial transcriptomics and single-cell sequencing, researchers mapped out gene expression patterns in the neurons of ...

The cell nucleus is considered to be the control center of vital cellular processes, but its material properties continue to puzzle scientists. An international research team has now developed a new ...

Single cells were isolated from liver tissue derived from 9 different patients to perform single-cell RNA-sequencing. After applying computational single-cell analysis methods, a human liver cell ...

Scientists have created the most detailed map to date, comprised of over 3 million cells, showing how breast tissue changes as women age—including dramatic changes during menopause. Subscribe to our ...

Researchers debunk what science believed about brain cell structure for 100 years, finding axons form repeating pearl-like ...

A detailed new map of the human kidney revealed a previously unrecognized form of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) marked by clusters of immune cells—specifically B cells—that are linked to faster ...

Alzheimer’s disease slowly takes over the mind. Long before symptoms occur, brain cells are gradually losing their function. Eventually they wither away, eroding brain networks that store memories.

A team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has uncovered the atomic structure of a protein complex pivotal to the function of motile cilia, the hair-like structures extending from the ...

The mouse was genetically modified to express green fluorescent protein in smell neurons. A small subset of dying neurons is ...
