Organ-on-a-chip systems offer a more accurate, ethical, and scalable alternative to animal testing in drug discovery and ...

Insulin-producing human pancreas cells can be manufactured with 3D printers, researchers reported at the International Transplant Congress underway in London.

Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin.

Living plant cells regenerate their protective cell walls under a microscope, providing the first high-resolution time-lapse videos of the assembly process. The cell wall's primary component ...

Scalability and Speed: Produce 3D cell models in minutes— 6 minutes for a 96-well plate and 9 minutes for a 384-well plate—with throughput of 35+ plates a day.

Eleven months later, CMS said to expect sickle cell disease to be one of the first priorities of the model before later expanding to other conditions. That plan was reemphasized Dec. 4.

Science Biology Bioengineers made mutant, solar-powered hamster cells 'Planimal' cell photosynthesis could be 'game-changing' for lab-grown cultures. By Andrew Paul Published Nov 18, 2024 10:53 AM EST ...

Chloroplasts, the parts of cells that allow plants and algae to photosynthesize, are thought to have originated more than 1 billion years ago, when photosynthetic cyanobacteria lived symbiotically ...

The cells driving the tissue are a plant-animal hybrid that can gain energy from sunlight in the same way that plants do, the researchers explain in the study. Both animals and plants derive ...

After decades of failed attempts, scientists have finally succeeded in coaxing animal cells into photosynthesizing. So far, the researchers have only managed to achieve the feat in cultured cells ...

Animal and plant cells have different energy-producing structures inside them. For animals, that’s mitochondria, which convert chemical energy from food into a form that our cells can use.

This fluorescence image shows chloroplasts (magenta colored) successfully incorporated into the hamster cells, with other features of the animal cell also highlighted (nuclei in light blue and ...
