A significant breakthrough came a decade ago with the development of a 3D cell culture model known as "Alzheimer’s in a dish." This system uses human neural precursor cells suspended in gel to ...

However, one culture condition that researchers often overlook is oxygen consumption. “Cells are grown in aqueous medium and there's a cell monolayer, which generates an oxygen sink where cells are ...

Scientists from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and ShanghaiTech University have developed an innovative method for ...

Scientists from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and ShanghaiTech University have developed an innovative method for growing brain tumors of individual patients in the laboratory that mimic ...

How is a normal cell transformed into a cancerous cell? The proteins involved in cell division events no longer appropriately drive progression from one cell cycle stage to the next.

An innovative organoid model mirrors the pancreas' complexity, generating all three key cell types to explore development and ...

Michael Eisenstein looks at contemporary solutions for culture conundrums ... take a normal cell and destroy that structure and make it malignant,” she says. “Our current model is that ...

Scientists have developed an innovative method for growing brain tumors of individual patients in the laboratory that mimic the original structure and the molecular property of the parental tumor as ...
