Since the CRISPR gene editor was created, researchers around the world have tweaked and refined the tool to use it in a variety of ways. Scientists at the University of Delaware (UD) have now found a ...

Certain immune cells backstab their cellular coworkers during allergic reactions. Mast cells, the security patrols of the immune system, can trigger allergic inflammation when they run into unfamiliar ...

Clifford P. Brangwynne smashed the single-celled embryo between a microscope slide and a thin glass cover slip. Then he peered into the microscope to get a look at the cell, taken from a worm commonly ...

This scanning electron microscopy image captures the moment where degranulating mast cells (pseudo-colored in sepia) attract and start to incorporate living neutrophils (pseudo-colored in cyan), ...

The enzymes responsible for catalytic reactions in our body's biological reactions are difficult to use for diagnosis or treatment as they react only to certain molecules or have low stability. Many ...

Mast cell stabilizers appear to have the potential to control IRRs and possibly allow for the safe reintroduction of agalsidase in patients with Fabry disease who previously received enzyme ...
