Disease research has always been about understanding tiny pieces of life. Scientists study how cells behave when sickness ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

Researchers have developed a capsule-based method that makes it possible to analyse the same cell through multiple experimental steps. The technology overcomes a long-standing limitation in cell ...

Single-cell analysis is a ubiquitous laboratory technique that allows researchers to probe the myriad biomolecular states of cells. Single-cell assays can reveal gene and protein expression patterns, ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers in Canada and the United States developed Single-Cell Similarity (SCimilarity), a framework for rapid, interpretable searches of ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

Every cell in a body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different ...

This study presents valuable findings that could potentially allow a deeper understanding of the immunopathogenesis underlying influenza infection in aged mice. The results are based on solid evidence ...
