The scope of human cell type atlases widened considerably today. Formerly, landscapes of individual cell types were largely confined to single organs. But now, thanks to four single-cell RNA ...

A new, comprehensive catalog of differences in gene expression across dozens of human tissue types reveals previously unknown connections between genes and their regulatory DNA, researchers report ...

Genetic studies have revealed many genes linked to both common and rare disease, but to understand how those genes bring about disease and use those insights to help develop therapies, scientists need ...

You may not be able to grow bigger muscles out of thin air, but you can 3D print them in microgravity, scientists at ETH ...

Nucleic acid extraction from biological samples is inherently difficult to execute consistently across different tissue types. Some tissue matrices are fibrous, contained in protective cell walls, or ...

In situ sequencing enables gene activity inside body tissues to be depicted in microscope images. To facilitate interpretation of the vast quantities of information generated, Uppsala University ...

Northwestern University researchers almost three years ago introduced an injectable new therapy, which harnessed fast-moving “dancing molecules,” to repair tissues and reverse paralysis after severe ...

While both types of tissue grafts can produce similar results, the path to surgery and recovery can vary widely between allografts and autografts. Every year, millions of people undergo tissue ...
