Macrophages are plastic cells found in most tissues that ... have effectively used a transgenic mouse model that expresses human FcγRI in murine macrophages to demonstrate the specificity of ...

Starting with a highly immunodeficient mouse [the NCG platform], we use radiation to deplete its immune system even further. Following this, injection of hematopoietic stem cells from human ...

In humans, there are two types of FcγR: the activating receptor, which contains the CD64 (FcγRI), CD32a (FcγRIIA), CD32c (FcγRIIC), CD16a (FcγRIIIA), and CD16b (FcγRIIIB); and the inhibiting ...

When Valadi’s team exposed human cells to EVs from mouse cells, they were shocked to observe the human cells take in the RNA messages and “read” them to create functional proteins they otherwise ...

[Doing this on Humans] is harder than the mouse," he said. We still don't understand enough of the unique biology of human gametogenesis (the formation of reproductive cells) to reproduce Hayashi ...

Oct. 3, 2024 — Human stem cell transplants successfully repaired macular holes in a monkey model, researchers report. After transplantation, the macular holes were closed by continuous filling ...

Given the right conditions, certain types of cells are able to self-assemble into new lifeforms after the organism they were once part of has died. When you purchase through links on our site ...

Oct. 8, 2024 — A research team describes how they engineered an efficient new enzyme that can produce a synthetic genetic material called threose nucleic acid. The ability to synthesize ...

In the beginning, one cell becomes two, and two become four. Being fruitful, they multiply into a ball of many cells, a shimmering sphere of human potential. Scientists have long dreamed of ...

Wireless mice have become so inexpensive and reliable that, for most people, they’re a better option than a cheap wired mouse. After researching and testing mice for nearly a decade with ...

According to many experts, we may soon find ourselves using fuel cells to generate electrical power for all sorts of objects we use every day. A fuel cell is a device that uses a source of fuel ...

Cells are the smallest unit of life and the building blocks for all organisms. Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus ...
