However, the multiple cell types within a tissue don't just have different functions. They also have different transcriptional programs and may well divide at different rates.

In fact, embryonic cell types are known to contain a unique set of chromatin modifications that are different from those found in adult cell types (Bernstein et al., 2006; Meshorer et al., 2006).

In the past decade there has been significant interest in studying the expression of our genetic code down to the level of single cells, to identify the functions and activities of any cell through ...

Single-cell proteomics with RNA sequencing uncover hidden gene expression dynamics in stem cell differentiation.

The research team investigated the regulatory mechanisms that guide the optimal differentiation of T cells into specific lineages while inhibiting others. To do this, they used a technique called ...

A new approach triggers meiosis, the cell division process responsible for producing egg and sperm, to aid future fertility treatments.

Stem cells are cells that have not yet become specialised for a specific function. This process is called cell differentiation. There are two types of stem cells in humans: Embryonic stem cells.

The ATC Human Neuronal Differentiation and Stem Cell Core is located at the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute. The service list of the core is extensive but focused on production of ...
