With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue. The model, which can be cultured from the patient's own cells, ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

Scientists have uncovered a hidden partnership between pancreatic cancer and the nervous system. Support cells in the ...

(Nanowerk News) Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers of the University of Technology in Delft ...

Researchers have used advanced imaging techniques to find out how nerve fibers and myCAFs work together to make pancreatic ...

Researchers identified a nerve-fibroblast signaling cycle that emerges before tumors form, promoting pancreatic cancer growth ...

Researchers found that nerves and cancer-supporting cells team up early to drive pancreatic cancer—breaking that alliance ...

To better model how neurons fire and interact with glia, some scientists place the cells into a brain or grow them in an organoid. Others have produced little spheres of human neural tissue by ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand different types of nerve cell in the human brain according to the latest ...
