CRISPR gene therapy Casgevy can nearly eliminate sickle cell crises, but difficult stem‑cell collection is delaying access and exposing fragile gene‑therapy infrastructure.
The human body is a dynamic place. Blood pumps, spinal fluid flows, oxygen comes in and carbon dioxide goes out. Deeper still, charged molecules pass through cell walls, quietly keeping the body's ...
A new study describes a technique that rejuvenates aging blood-forming stem cells and could help reduce the risk of age-related blood disorders.
Graham Johnson, a computational biologist and scientific illustrator at the Allen Institute for Cell Science, recalls fantasizing at a lunch table, more than 15 years ago, about a computer model of a ...
A newly discovered visual cell in deep-sea fish larvae is reshaping long-held assumptions about how vertebrates see the world.
Scientists in China have unveiled a breakthrough way to mass-produce powerful cancer-fighting immune cells in the lab. By ...
A small but enthusiastic group of neuroscientists is exhuming overlooked experiments and performing new ones to explore whether cells record past experiences — fundamentally challenging what memory is ...
Hairy-cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare, indolent neoplasm of mature B cells with hairlike surface projections that circulate in the blood and preferentially infiltrate the bone marrow and spleen. The ...
