In general, human cells had more upregulated genes compared to chimpanzees. This is a much larger percentage than researchers found when they couldn't break down the analysis by cell type.

The hugely ambitious project of mapping the estimated 37.2 trillion cells of the human body is close to reaching a historic milestone – the first draft of the 'atlas.' We got a glimpse at what's ...

Using cutting-edge RNA sequencing, researchers mapped how exercise affects specific brain cell types in a model of ...

Scientists have created tiny living robots from human cells that can move around in a lab dish and may one day be able to help heal wounds or damaged tissue, according to a new study.. A team at ...

In an effort to finally “close this debate,” researchers from Constructor University blasted two types of human skin cells with 5G electromagnetic fields significantly stronger than ...

Scientists with the Human Cell Atlas (HCA), an international research consortium, have profiled 100 million cells from more than 10,000 people around the world. Working in over 100 countries, the ...

In 2020 biologist Michael Levin and his colleagues reported that they had made “biological robots” by shaping clusters of cells into tiny artificial forms that could “walk” around on surfaces.

Regev compared scientific knowledge of cell biology before the Human Cell Atlas initiative with a “15 th century map.” “Now, years later, the resolution of the map is a lot higher,” she said.

But in general, human-specific cell types are rare. The overall impression, when comparing the cell types of the human brain with other species, is one of similarity.
