A team led by HHMI Janelia Research Campus Fellow Daniel Feliciano developed a new, cost-effective technique that uses ...

The liver has a unique structure, especially at the level of individual cells. Hepatocytes, the main liver cells, release bile into tiny channels called bile canaliculi, which drain into the bile duct ...

Study helps lay the foundations for a future of “smart” tissue therapeutics that can be scaled to a patient’s needs.

Acute liver failure (ALF) represents a life-threatening condition marked by rapid deterioration of liver function, often necessitating urgent liver transplantation. In the United States, acetaminophen ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Chris Bohl, Ken Brouwer, Karissa Cottier, Scott Heyward, Courtney Noah, Brian Ogilvie, and BioIVT. Several reports in the literature have ...

Researchers from Skoltech and their colleagues from Germany and the U.S. have discovered structures responsible for the shape of bile canaliculi, a network of canals in the liver. Published in the ...

What am I looking at? This is a single human hepatocyte. Its two nuclei are in blue (1). The other colors in this image are stains of the actin protein and are depth-coded, with red being the closest ...

When harnessing immune cells to fight cancer, researchers traditionally focused on T cells or natural killer cells circulating through the blood. However, the critical cell types coordinating this ...
