Predicting how circulating immune cells interact with human tissues remains a major challenge in preclinical drug testing. Traditional static culture systems often allow suspended cells to settle, ...

Researchers at the University of Virginia School of Medicine have identified a specific enzyme inside immune cells that keeps Toxoplasma gondii, one of the most common brain parasites on the planet, ...

Draper scientists have successfully produced an extended recirculation of immune cells in a high-throughput microphysiological system (MPS). The studies achieved long-term recirculation (up to 24 ...

Scientists hoping to discover better ways to boost immune function — which could lengthen our healthspan and protect immunocompromised patients — may have a new target, according to findings published ...

A unique quality of the immune system is that it can generate a ‘memory’ response. This is generally referred to as ‘immune ...

“This is an early but exciting step toward recharging aging tissues using their own biological machinery,” Gaharwar says in ...

Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what ...

Immune cells that are designed to soothe could improve treatment for organ transplants, type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune conditions. When the immune system overreacts and starts attacking the body ...

A new electronic implant system can help lab-grown pancreatic cells mature and function properly, potentially providing a ...

A new study by scientists at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill reveals that the cells shaping our organs may be far more mobile and coordinated than once believed. The study is published ...
