Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ultimately lose function during viral infection, findings that could improve ...

While thrombocytopenia and bleeding are events that often occur together in neonates, this may not signify cause and effect. In fact, one study reported that 91% of neonates with low platelet counts ...

Tools for understanding the development, phenotype, and function of specific T cell subsets are critical to the modern immunologist. Tonbo Biosciences provides a rapidly expanding portfolio of ...

How do we “name” a cell and assign its identity? How do we know that we are all talking about the same cells? How do we agree on what it takes to confidently correlate previous with current research ...

Flow cytometry is an analytical method that allows cells to be quickly analyzed and categorized by lasers as they pass in single-file. The way in which the laser light is scattered can be used to ...

CD4+ T cells, or helper T cells, are one type of lymphocyte that helps coordinate the immune response against infection and disease. They interact and activate other cells in the immune system. The ...

Flow cytometry is a way to look closely at the features of cells or particles. A sample of blood or tissue goes into a machine called a cytometer. In less than a minute, a computer can analyze ...

A research team from George R Brown School of Engineering and Computing (Rice University; TX, USA), led by Peter Lillehoj and Kevin Mchugh, have developed an innovative AI-enabled microfluidic ...

The UAB Flow Cytometry Lab is home to a staff of medical laboratory professionals who perform complex testing using state-of-the-art flow cytometry equipment. This testing, through research, education ...
