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 ...

Silencing mRNA expression in dendritic cells did not impair T‑cell priming, including for SARS‑CoV‑2 antigens, suggesting that cross‑presentation by other cell types is sufficient to initiate immunity ...

While the amazing regenerative power of the liver has been known since ancient times, the cells responsible for maintaining and replenishing the liver have remained a mystery. Now, research from the ...

A newly discovered type of liver cell may hold clues for treating severe liver disease, according to a recent study from the University of Michigan Life Sciences Institute. The findings, published in ...

In a new study published in the Journal of Hepatology, researchers from the San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy (SR-Tiget) show that only 15–20% of hepatocytes in newborn mice - dubbed ...

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 ...
