Background and Aims: Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) comprise the majority of cells within human atherosclerotic intima. Our previous study of human coronary atherosclerosis found that ≥50% of foam cells ...

These foods high in protein help build muscle, particularly for those over 50. Adding them to your diet is a great way to maintain muscle mass with age.

Intercellular fluid flow, not just cell structure, governs how tissues respond to physical forces by Jennifer Chu, Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

Mouse vascular smooth muscle (MOVAS) cells were incubated with ox-LDL to induce foam cell formation and ferroptosis. We assessed intracellular iron, lipid peroxidation, reactive oxygen species (ROS), ...

Cytek Biosciences launches the Aurora™ Evo, an advanced flow cytometer enhancing throughput and automation for cell analysis.

Illumina is suing Element Biosciences, with the sequencing giant accusing its smaller rival of infringing on five of its patents covering flow cell and imaging technologies used in automated ...

After decades of hype and setbacks, scientists have made impressive progress into tricking stem cells into repairing organs.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are a reliable marker of disease progression in melanoma and can reliably be detected using flow cytometry, suggests a small study of patients with the skin disease ...

The impact of circadian disruption on muscle health and aging has been uncovered. A research team at King’s College London (UK) has uncovered the intrinsic and extrinsic effects that circadian ...

Following on from a remarkable study in mice, scientists have now confirmed that silencing a certain protein in muscle tissue leads to energy-deprived human cells seeking out fat for fuel, while ...

BACKGROUND: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), in response to a myriad of injurious stimuli, switch from a contractile state to a proliferative/migratory state in a process known as phenotypic ...
