Neurons—the nerve cells responsible for transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body—are organized in tissue, tending to cluster together in groups according to how they function.

Scientists have discovered how chemokines and G protein-coupled receptors selectively bind each other to control how cells move.

Scientists from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin have created a data science framework to better understand how cells travel through the body.

For biologists, seeing is believing. But sometimes biologists have a hard time seeing. One particularly vexing challenge is ...

The PNS contains a number of distinct glial cells, each of which is intimately associated with different parts of the neuron or with specific neuronal cell types 94. Neuronal cell bodies in dorsal ...

Our results indicate that aberrant midline crossing by motor neuron cell bodies and axons in mice lacking Robo1 and Robo2 are not interdependent and that DCC contributes to axon, but not cell body ...

This image shows a subset of more than 1,000 of the neurons and glial cells reconstructed in the portion of MICrONS data set depicted here. The colors in this representation were chosen to ...

The scientists showed that, right at the onset of mild illness, the body also produces special T cells previously known only from chronic, severe infections and tumors. There are different types of T ...

In a study published in Cell on April 7, a research team led by Prof. LI Hanjie from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the ...
