During early development, tissues and organs begin to bloom through the shifting, splitting, and growing of many thousands of ...

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 ...

“Hey model, if I prompt you with the marker genes for a cell type, can you complete the transcription factors that you believe would be highly expressed with expression of these genes?” posed ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Prior to using this narrative, have learners create their own model of a cell in their notebooks using whatever background information or experience they might have. While exploring the narrative, ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four ...

Our body’s “blood factory” consists of specialized tissue made up of bone cells, blood vessels, nerves and other cell types. Now, researchers have succeeded for the first time in recreating this ...
