FibroBiologics, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company with a focus on developing therapeutics for chronic diseases, has announced that research scientist Simon Gebremeskel will present a poster ...

Researchers have used pluripotent stem cells to make thymus organoids that support the development of patient-specific T-cells, researchers report March 23 rd in the journal Stem Cell Reports. The ...

Scientists have succeeded in regenerating a living organ for the first time. Researchers rebuilt the thymus -- an organ in the body located next to the heart that produces important immune cells. The ...

The thymus is a small, inconspicuous organ, but it is also vital for a functional immune system. This is because it is the development site of the T-lymphocytes (T-cells), which play a central role in ...

Thymus is the key organ for development and maturation of T lymphocytes. The dysfunction of thymus leads to decreased immunity or autoimmune diseases. T cells can be divided intoαβ T cells and γδ T ...

The thymus provides a specialized microenvironment for the efficient generation of T cells that bear the αβ form of the T-cell receptor. The thymus is divided into cortical and medullary areas which ...

“During development and tissue regeneration, stem and progenitor cells give rise to differentiated cell types in defined numbers and proportions to properly generate and maintain organs and body plans ...

Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute and their collaborators at Ghent University, Belgium, the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and ...
