A person may be 55 years old on paper while their lungs, kidneys, or pancreas appear biologically older or younger.

A new atlas pairs DNA methylation with 3D genome folding in 86,689 human cells and ties disease risk to specific cell types.

A new, easily adopted, 3D-printed device will enable scientists to create models of human tissue with even greater control and complexity. An interdisciplinary group of researchers at the University ...

AI found that organs can age at very different speeds, and researcher André Rendeiro told Earth.com that the results show how ...

Why does the immune system become less effective as we age? A new USC study published in BMC Biology offers fresh insights by examining a key immune cell type across tissues: macrophages. Macrophages ...

We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...

Every cell in the human body carries the same 3 billion letters of DNA, yet a neuron, a heart muscle cell and a pancreatic beta cell each use that shared code to do entirely different jobs. How cells ...

Researchers developed a technique to recover intact cells from archived FFPE samples, potentially enabling new studies of disease, treatment response, and patient outcomes.

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed one of the most comprehensive maps of protein expression to improve understanding of biological mechanisms that drive health ...

The age printed on a birth certificate tells only part of the story. Inside the body, the lungs, kidneys, pancreas, brain, ...
