The findings, published in Neuron, improve the understanding of Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis. “It’s more [of] an exploratory study, but it creates a lot of useful information that can be mined,” ...

Living tissues do not change through biology alone. They are shaped by a constant dialogue among forces, chemicals, and ...

Gene expression reveals that different types of human cell can work as a unit. These cellular modules, found in several tissues, change during disease. However, suitable computational methods are ...

Scientists reveal how evolution within our own tissues can drive disease, protect cells, and uncover hidden therapeutic targets for future precision medicine. Somatic genomics uncovers the outcomes of ...

Aging and chronic diseases involve the gradual accumulation of subtle tissue changes over a long period. Therefore, there are still limitations in quantitatively understanding these changes within ...

A new method has revolutionized our ability to map tissue fiber orientation and organization across tissues, diseases and sample preparations. An international group of researchers led by Marios ...

A project at New York's Stony Brook University has used terahertz (THz) polarimetry to detect microscopic tissue changes associated with skin damage from burns, a method that may also be suitable for ...

A new PET radiotracer can differentiate diseased tissues from healthy tissues based on fructose metabolism, according to new research published in the March issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

Sixteen years after doctors froze part of a boy’s testicle before chemotherapy, the tissue has helped him produce sperm as an ...
