Mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent adult stem cells that are present in multiple tissues, including umbilical cord, bone marrow and fat tissue. Mesenchymal stem cells can self-renew by ...

Virus stocks were titrated using an Endpoint Dilutions Assay (EDA, TCID 50 /mL). Vero E6 cells were seeded into 96-well plates and infected at 95% of confluency with base 10 dilutions of virus stock.

Importantly, we show that this localization pattern is evolutionarily conserved up to and including humans. Furthermore, we confirm pcdh15b-cdhr1a interactions via immunoprecipitation and K562 cell ...

Established in 2016, the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium set out to create a comprehensive biological map of cells within the human body. Now progressing into a data integration phase ...

Scientists published more than three dozen papers as part of the Human Cell Atlas, an effort to map the human body cell by cell. The human body contains around 36 trillion to 37 trillion cells ...

For a very long time, we have been under the impression that memory and learning are solely the brain’s forte. Central to this belief is the fact that our brains, particularly our brain cells, store ...

An ambitious plan to map all 37 trillion cells in the human body is transforming understanding of how our bodies work, scientists report. The received wisdom said we were built from around 200 ...
