Moving Cells Holds Medical Promise
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[09/04/2013] Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have shown they can coax cells to move toward a beam of light. The feat is a first step toward manipulating cells to control insulin secretion or heart rate using light. Moving Cells Holds Medical Promise - Read more
Capture of Circulating Tumor Cells
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[04/04/2013] A new system for isolating rare circulating tumor cells (CTCs) – living solid tumor cells found at low levels in the bloodstream – shows significant improvement over previously developed devices and does not require prior identification of tumor-specific target molecules. Capture of Circulating Tumor Cells - Read more
Development Depends On Grip
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[02/04/2013] Researchers have generated new insight on how a stem cell's environment influences its development: Whether human mesenchymal stem cells turn into fat or bone cells depends partially on how well they can "grip" the material they are growing in. Development Depends On Grip - Read more
New Nerve Cells Formed
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[28/03/2013] The field of cell therapy, which aims to form new cells in the body in order to cure disease, has taken another important step in the development towards new treatments. A new report from researchers at Lund University in Sweden shows that it is possible to re-programme other cells to become nerve cells, directly in the brain. New Nerve Cells Formed - Read more
The Fates of Individual T Cells
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[21/03/2013] By charting the differing fates of individual T cells, researchers have shown that previously unpredictable aspects of the adaptive immune response can be effectively modeled. The Fates of Individual T Cells - Read more
