Scientists are sending stem cells into orbit where the forces of gravity won't interfere with how they cells proliferate and assemble into small organ-like clusters. It's an exciting time for stem ...
Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...
The immune cell repertoire is composed of many different cell types that are orchestrated in response to infection and other pathogens that enter the body. As a result, the body can defend itself ...
