Researchers discovered that epithelial cells use electricity to expel weak, energy-poor neighbors and maintain tissue health.

In this Opinion article, we discuss the function of tissues as a crucial checkpoint for the regulation of effector T cell responses, and the notion that interleukin-15 (IL-15) functions as a danger ...

Tissue and cell-type identity lie at the core of human physiology and disease. Understanding the genetic underpinnings of complex tissues and individual cell lineages is crucial for developing ...

Previously unmapped sections of the genome explain how cells sense their mechanical environment and could open new paths for ...

Researchers have found that decay of tissues after death can be halted and cell functions restored based on early experiments in pigs that may eventually help increase the number of transplantable ...

Scientists are reporting the first direct evidence that a subtle change in the physical properties of a tissue can affect its function. The finding has immediate implications for understanding several ...

These tiny polymer scaffolds contain channels that are about 100 micrometres wide, about the same diameter as a human hair. Toronto: Taking tissue engineering to a whole new level researchers have ...
