Scientists say they have very strong evidence that the adult human brain is capable of making new neurons, a point of ongoing ...

By Nancy Lapid (Reuters) -Insulin-producing human pancreas cells can be manufactured with 3D printers, researchers reported ...

Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) enables the extraction of genomic DNA from a variety of animal tissues and cell samples.

Each time a cell divides, a small section of each chromosome's protective cap—the telomere—is worn away. Most cells use an ...

The average dividing cell must copy—perfectly—3.2 billion base pairs of DNA, about once every 24 hours. The cell’s replication machinery does an amazing job of this, copying genetic material ...

Did you know that a small molecule called NAD+ plays a critical role in our aging process? A deficiency of this molecule may ...

A multidisciplinary team of researchers, including archaeologists, have analyzed the DNA of fish remains from Roman fish ...

There are more than 10,000 samples here, everything from skin to feathers. Curator Marlys Houck said, "When I was freezing cells from the northern white rhino, there were 50 living.

The colors are arbitrary, but I've used greenish-blue for plasma membranes and red or purple for DNA for many years. It's a generalized animal (including human) cell, with no specializations and ...

Using 'fission yeast', a single-celled organism that mirrors many of the inner workings of human cells, the research team ...

Only the cells that become germ cells retain the bonus DNA and pass it on to the next generation. How and why this feature evolved remains largely mysterious, though biologists first spotted it a ...

The technology could zero in on one spot in a cell’s genome, and then either snip out or insert new DNA. Dr. Shendure and his colleagues set out to use CRISPR to record a cell’s history.
