It's tricky to make an exact copy of yourself. Or at least it is for cells undergoing mitosis, where cells replicate everything inside of them, including their neatly packaged DNA, then split in half.

Researchers at LMU have developed a human cell model that replicates key mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases—with potential for novel therapies. The paper is published in the journal Science ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have created a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that helps ...

Research and drug discovery are undergoing a transformation, driven by the rise of 3D cell culture models that better replicate human biology. Unlike traditional 2D cultures and animal models, which ...

Researchers have developed a computer model to help scientists identify tumor-fighting immune cells in patients with lung cancer treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Researchers at the Johns ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...

A new study published in Nature Communications shows that human glial progenitor cells are a promising and safe cell product ...

Scientists invented a pocket-sized model of the most common form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The "disease-on-a-chip," made using stem cells, could pave the way for new treatments for the ...

The human cell is a miserable thing to study. Tens of trillions of them exist in the body, forming an enormous and intricate network that governs every disease and metabolic process. Each cell in that ...
