Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed two powerful computational tools that could transform how researchers ...

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, our skin tissue—and in fact many types of epithelial tissue that lines and covers the ...

Ravin Ratan, MD, MEd, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, explains the origins of soft tissue sarcomas within the body—which account for 1% of cancers in adult patients—how they are ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

The scope of human cell type atlases widened considerably today. Formerly, landscapes of individual cell types were largely confined to single organs. But now, thanks to four single-cell RNA ...

Genetic studies have revealed many genes linked to both common and rare disease, but to understand how those genes bring about disease and use those insights to help develop therapies, scientists need ...

An international team of researchers reached a major milestone in decoding the human genome by linking genes across all chromosome of many individual people to specific tissues and disease processes.

The Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) released the world's first classification of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), or heart attack, based on heart tissue damage research that was driven by two ...

Nucleic acid extraction from biological samples is inherently difficult to execute consistently across different tissue types. Some tissue matrices are fibrous, contained in protective cell walls, or ...

A soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a malignant tumor that starts in soft tissue such as muscle, deep skin tissues, cartilage, or fat. It often occurs as a lump in the arm, although it can happen anywhere.
