A model developed by LMU biophysicists demonstrates how biological processes form the convoluted internal architecture of the thymus – allowing for better suppression of autoimmune responses. The ...
The first 3D images of a whole human thymus have been created using a specialized X-ray technique by researchers from UCL and the Francis Crick Institute. These highly-intricate images showed that ...
Researchers have used pluripotent stem cells to make thymus organoids that support the development of patient-specific T-cells, researchers report March 23 rd in the journal Stem Cell Reports. The ...
The thymus gland is located in the chest behind the breastbone. Its functions include producing white blood cells known as T cells, which aid in immunity. It also contributes to the production of ...
The thymus is a crucial training ground for T-cells, the body's "white knights," where they learn to battle the various diseases they may encounter. Thymic function shrinks to nearly nothing as we age ...
Scientists hoping to discover better ways to boost immune function — which could lengthen our healthspan and protect immunocompromised patients — may have a new target, according to findings published ...
In a small clinical trial, scientists were looking for a means to restore the thymus — the gland that forms and releases key immune cells. By doing so, they actually managed to reverse various aspects ...
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Thymmune Therapeutics, a biotechnology company developing scalable thymic cell therapies to restore immune function in aging and disease, today announced that the ...
A pediatric surgery team at Duke University successfully performed a heart transplant and a thymus tissue transplant from the same donor. By transplanting both, the odds of rejection may be reduced.
