Researchers discovered that epithelial cells that line human skin are able to communicate danger to the body through a silent ...
As bioengineers, we became interested in the epithelial cells that make up human skin and the outer layer of people’s ...
Scientists have developed a breakthrough technique to directly convert skin cells into neurons, bypassing the need for stem ...
About 20 years ago, scientists discovered that skin cells could be converted into pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which can become various cell types. However, this process takes weeks and often faces ...
Until now, skin cells have been viewed as barriers that can respond to electric stimuli. Turns out, they also generate ...
Working with mouse cells, the researchers developed a conversion method that is highly efficient and can produce more than 10 neurons from a single skin cell. If replicated in human cells, this ...
This chip was coated with a single layer of lab-grown human keratinocytes, the main epithelial cells that make up the ...
