New insight into neovessel formation

New insight into neovessel formation shows promise in future treatment of cardiovascular diseases: A new study by researchers at the University of Eastern Finland provides novel insight into the previously unknown effects of factors regulating blood vessel formation. In the study, bone morphogenetic factor 6, i.e. BMP6, was shown – for the first time – to regulate blood vessel formation via vascular […]

Novel map reveals how immune cells fight and remember infections

Novel map reveals how immune cells fight and remember infections: Researchers have charted the activity of tens of thousands of genes in mouse immune cells over the course of an infection to create the first full dynamic map of how cells learn to fight microbes, and then preserve a memory of this for future infections. […]
