2011年10月21日 · How do healthy cells work? What is a cell? How are cells regulated? How do cells divide? What is a cell? Cells are the most basic units of life. Each cell is a complex structure that could theoretically survive, grow, reproduce and die on its own. The cells in our bodies, however, work together with similar cells to form structures called tissues.

• Since our bodies are made up of cells, our cells need to be healthy for us to be healthy: healthy cells, healthy bodies. • Some cellular mutations can lead to greater human disease. Students will learn about examples of human diseases caused by cellular mutations.

Describe the general characteristics of each of the following cell types and relate their characteristics to their functions: nerve cell, muscle cell, red blood cell (erythrocyte), and white blood cell (leukocyte). The different organ systems each have different functions and therefore unique roles to perform in the body.

2023年7月19日 · More than 150 scientists from 17 consortia are collaborating on an international project to build a Human Reference Atlas, which maps all 37 trillion cells in the healthy adult human body....

The Human Cell Atlas is a global consortium that is mapping every cell type in the human body, creating a 3-dimensional Atlas of human cells to transform our understanding of biology and disease. The Atlas is likely to lead to major advances in …

2025年1月1日 · The freely available data and cell maps will help transform future healthcare by improving the understanding of tissue-specific human cell biology in health and disease. This Editorial aims to provide an update on the current status of the HCA and highlights how this encyclopedia of cells will be an important step towards providing better care ...

2025年2月5日 · Alterations of gene regulatory networks in specific cell types can cause disease. These authors create HCNetlas (Human Cell Network Atlas), a compilation of cell-type-specific gene networks across a range of healthy tissues that can be used to uncover associations between disease genes and specific cell types.

Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. The human body is composed of trillions of cells. They provide structure for the body, take in nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out specialized functions. Cells also contain the body’s hereditary material and can make copies of themselves.

ATCC has thousands of human cells that are invaluable for public health research and critical to the discovery and development of new, improved, and emerging scientific advances.
