We designed a rhesus macaque 2D choroid plexus epithelial cell culture, as well as a modified 3D cell culture model, in order to study activation, diffusion, and migration through the choroid plexus.

A research group has developed a technology for mass-producing uniform artificial cells (lipid bilayer vesicles) with artificial model nuclei using microfluidic devices with high reproducibility. They ...

Animal and plant cells can be visualised using a model. Find out how to make them with Bitesize. For students between the ages of 11 and 14.

Despite a recent NIH announcement, animal models are becoming even more important because of recent breakthroughs in single-cell biology.

Is science ready to move away from animal models? STAT readers' opinions vary.

In a finding that directly contradicts the standard biological model of animal cell communication, scientists have discovered that typical cells in animals have the ability to transmit and receive ...

Social media users are falsely claiming that an image shows the most detailed model of a human cell to date.

An interactive version of the image shows in greater detail each component on an animal cell, including the tubulin, the vesicle membranes, and the mitochondrial outer membrane.

Cell culture plays an important role in a wide range of biological research, from modelling diseases, to testing drug toxicity, to manufacturing vaccines. Traditionally, cultures have been planar, ...
