Read MoreFlow Cytometry and Cytogenetics
What is flow cytometry? Flow cytometry can be used to measure a number of characteristics of a population of cells and refers to the process of passing cells individually through a single or series of laser beams adjacent to a…
Read MoreInternal clocks drive beta cell regeneration
Certain body parts, such as the skin or liver, can repair themselves after damage. Cell regeneration is the phenomenon by which cells that are still functional proliferate to compensate for cellular damage. For the past 30 years, scientists have been…
Read MoreScientists discover second key pathway in colon cancer stem cell growth
In breakthrough colon cancer research, scientists at ChristianaCare’s Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute have discovered a link between two key signaling pathways crucial to the development and growth of colon cancer. The study is published today in…

A new study shows that Black individuals with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer are less likely to receive chemotherapy for their disease compared to white and other racial groups. Led by researchers at Boston Medical Center, the results indicate that…
Read MoreResearchers demonstrate how changing the stem cell response to inflammation may reverse periodontal disease
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a serious infection that affects nearly 50 percent of Americans aged 30 years and older. If left unchecked, periodontal disease can destroy the jawbone and lead to tooth loss. The disease is…
Read MoreGTEx findings reveal genetic regulatory variation across tissues and cell types
The multi-institutional Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) Consortium, in a final-phase initiative co-led by Tuuli Lappalainen, Ph.D., Core Faculty Member at the New York Genome Center, has published its final set of studies. The new research presents a comprehensive atlas that maps…
Read MoreGut microbiome translates stress into sickle cell crises
A new study shows how chronic psychological stress leads to painful vessel-clogging episodes—the most common complication of sickle-cell disease (SCD) and a frequent cause of hospitalizations. The findings, made in mice, show that the gut microbiome plays a key role…
