The penis is a complex organ, thanks to the intricate network of blood vessels and tissues needed to engorge it. Scientists ...

Researchers have revealed a new scientific clue that could unlock the key cellular pathway leading to devastating neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ...

So, they engineered generic human endothelial cells (ECs), the cells that line the inside of blood vessels, to form reprogrammed vascular ECs, R-VECs. They first tested the R-VECs in a ...

By incorporating engineered human blood vessel cells called reprogrammed vascular endothelial cells (R-VECs), the team successfully improved the survival of insulin-producing cells – restoring normal ...

Your daily habits impact blood flow more than you realize. Learn how small changes in movement, hydration, and sleep can ...

The finest of all these lymphatic vessels are called lymph capillaries. They have walls that are made up of just a single layer of lymphatic endothelial cells that are permeable to fluids ...

One of the major contributors to complications in SCD is oxidative stress, a condition where the body’s antioxidant defense ...

Scientists at the Wisconsin National Primate Research Center (WNPRC) and the Morgridge Institute for Research at the University of Wisconsin–Madison have been at the forefront of stem cell research ...

Beyond providing insights into stem cell survival, these findings reshape our understanding of blood vessels. They reveal that blood vessels function as gatekeepers, regulating stem cell activity ...
