Researchers at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine have mapped variation in human stem cells that explains how cells of an individual may shape a unique 'developmental dance' at the molecular level, thereby controlling how the brain and body are created.

Immune cells caught between worlds: Researchers explore how innate-like T cells matureOur immune system spans two worlds—innate and adaptive. Innate immune cells are like troops at the gate ready to hold off invaders and raise the body's alarms. Adaptive immune cells are specialists that take longer to respond but can fight off foes in a more targeted manner.

Mouse model shows how epigenetic changes reprogram astrocytes into brain stem cellsResting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the methylation of their genetic material, which endows these special astrocytes with stem cell properties.
