Senescent skin cells, often referred to as zombie cells because they have outlived their usefulness without ever quite dying, have existed in the human body as a seeming paradox, causing inflammation ...

Scientists are unraveling the role of senescent cells in a common form of epilepsy, and it could point to new treatments.

Cells constantly shift and transform, triggering the complex choreography that shapes living organisms. Whether dividing into new cells or sculpting an embryo, these tiny movements rely on chemical ...

Researchers have uncovered how different types of brain cells work together to form large-scale functional networks in the human brain -- interconnected systems that support everything from sensory ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed spatial aging clocks using single-cell transcriptomics to explore cell-type-specific interactions and their impact on brain ...

Teeth function not only because of the hard enamel on the surface, but also because they have roots that anchor them firmly ...

The human immune system is like an army of specialized soldiers (immune cells) each with a unique role to play in fighting disease. In a new study published in Nature, led by scientists at the Allen ...

Rutgers researchers at the Brain Health Institute (BHI) and Center for Advanced Human Brain Imaging Research (CAHBIR) have uncovered how different types of brain cells work together to form ...
