Scientists have composed a complete map of the cells in the developing human thymus. This novel approach with single cell resolution allowed them to identify more than 50 different cell states in the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and at University College London (UCL) have rebuilt a human thymus using human stem cells and a bioengineered scaffold. The thymus is an essential organ in ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and University College London have rebuilt a human thymus, an essential organ in the immune system, using human stem cells and a bioengineered scaffold.

The thymus is one of the most important organs you probably don’t think about. Positioned below the breastbone at the top of the chest, it facilitates the adaptive immune response by producing T cells ...

Researchers led by Hannah Meyer, PhD, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Fellow, published a paper “Transcriptomic diversity in human medullary thymic epithelial cells” in Nature Communications that ...

Researchers have rebuilt a human thymus, an essential organ in the immune system, using human stem cells and a bioengineered scaffold. Their work is an important step towards being able to build ...

Human peadiatric thymus image from the IBEX protein multiplex (44 proteins on the same image) platform. Thymic epithelial cells are labeled with DEC205 (cyan), pan-cytokeratin (purple), keratin 5 (red ...

Scientists have mapped the thymus, a gland in the chest that makes disease-fighting white blood cells, across the human life span. This “cell atlas” could help researchers understand how thymus cells ...

It was believed that they did not exist, but they are a reality. Scientists at the Francis Crick Institute in London have discovered stem cells in the thymus for the first time. The last organ to have ...

For the first time, scientists from the VIB Center for Inflammation Research, Ghent University, The Wellcome Sanger Institute (UK), and Newcastle University (UK) have composed a complete map of the ...
