Many biological functions and systems are influenced by how gene expression is spatially distributed, from subcellular through to tissue, organ, or at embryonic level. Our understanding of these ...

Applying single-cell RNA sequencing has led researchers to be able to profile the entire transcriptome of cells. However, these transcriptomes prove difficult to link back to their original location ...

The brain is an extremely heterogeneous tissue. Within one small piece, there are neurons transmitting information, oligodendrocytes and astrocytes acting as support cells and microglia functioning as ...

Nova-ST, a new spatial transcriptomics technique, has been introduced by researchers based at Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie (VIB), Katholieke Universiteit (KU) Leuven. According to the ...

Illumina is raising the curtain on its upcoming entry into spatial transcriptomics, with tech designed to help researchers explore cellular behavior mapped across complex tissues. The announcement ...

Head and neck cancers display notable heterogeneity in their immune cell infiltrates, which reflect intricate spatial arrangements and dynamic networks of ...

Spatial transcriptomics is revolutionizing the study of tissue architecture, cellular states, and tumor-immune interactions in clinical specimens. This presentation introduces the principles and ...

A whole developing wheat spike, 1mm scale. The blue represents fluorescent staining for DNA withing the nuclei. There are different coloured spots showing gene expression detected using the probes in ...

To study biological processes, scientists often take snapshots of the molecules in cells, such as proteins and nucleotides, at specific points in time. In spatial biology, they can leverage molecular ...

Breakthrough research details how distinct tissue niches and cell communication contribute to chronic active lesions in MS. Study: Cell type mapping reveals tissue niches and interactions in ...
