MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL Key Takeaways – Researchers developed a new 3D model of Alzheimer’s Disease that allows them to study the role of immune cells in the disease– They found that infiltration of immune cells significantly increases in brains with AD pathology and contributes to neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation– The team also identified potential strategies to...

Researchers release first 3D model of human cell division
Scientists at the Allen Institute for Cell Science have created what they believe is the first comprehensive 3D model for mitosis using human stem cells. Previous models have characterized proteins involved in cell division using abnormal cells, but project co-director Susanne Rafelski says the Integrated Mitotic Stem Cell project — which includes images from some 2,000 mitotic cells and 15 structures within cells — captures how normal cells behave....

First interactive model of human cell division
Real-time tracking of proteins during mitosis is now possible using a 4D computer model made by EMBL scientists Mitosis – how one cell divides and becomes two – is one of the fundamental processes of life. Researchers at EMBL have now produced the first interactive map of proteins that make our cells divide, allowing users...
