and connective tissue cells. Neuronal stem cells produce a variety of nervous system tissue, mostly during early embryonic development but, as we are beginning to learn, later in life as well.

Observations of electrical signal propagation across colonies of epithelial cells suggest they may be able to communicate, ...

There was, however, a tissue that seemed to belie cell theory — nervous tissue. Because of its softness and fragility, it was difficult to handle and susceptible to deterioration. But it was ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed ...

During the development of an embryo, this rod-like tissue acts as a kind of crucial scaffold, and helps dictate where cells should build out the spine and nervous system. This is the first stem ...
