A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.
Scientists identified a gene switch that helps immune cells fully mature, allowing them to clean up tissues and keep our organs healthy.
Growing tissues can crack, break, and dissociate to form structures that can later withstand immense forces.
Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...
Researchers at the University of Liège have identified a key genetic regulator that enables macrophages to reach full ...
Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a ...

An international team of scientists has discovered a new mathematical principle that explains how cells connect with each other to form tissues, an important step forward in understanding how organs ...
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 ...
