Although the corneoscleral limbus is acknowledged as the site of corneal epithelial stem cells no anatomical niche for such cells has yet been described. The authors undertook to re-evaluate the ...

We hypothesized, that IL-22 modulates cell polarity of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) acting on tight junction assembly. The aim of the study was to investigate IL-22-dependent mechanisms in the ...

In a new study, researchers identified a molecule produced by a particular type of brain cell that reversed the cognitive decline seen in both healthy aging and dementia. It provides a deeper ...

Thetis cells, a class of immune cells first described in 2022, play an essential and previously unknown role in suppressing inflammatory responses to food, a new study finds. A decade ago, a ...

Thetis cells got their name because they share traits with two different types of antigen-presenting cells: medullary thymic epithelial cells and dendritic cells—just as Thetis in Greek ...

An often-ignored type of cell in the brain plays a dynamic and surprisingly complex role in our ability to process information, according to new research. An often-ignored type of cell in the ...

Bevacizumab addition to chemotherapy showed significant progression-free survival benefits in high-risk epithelial ovarian cancer patients but not in overall survival. The BEV1L study used real ...

In mice, we monitored blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), pathological modifications of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs), and fibrosis degrees ...
