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 ...

Find out about TECregen's, a Basel-based company developing novel biologics designed to rejuvenate the thymus, “thymopoietics.” ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have identified stem cells in the human thymus for the first time. These cells represent a potential new target to understand immune diseases and cancer and ...

Biomedical scientists have confirmed that newly discovered cells in the thymus are just like M cells, which are mostly known for their presence in the intestinal epithelium. It came as a surprise to ...

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 ...

A Czech scientist has contributed to understanding the function of the thymus—the training center of the immune system. T lymphocytes, key defensive cells, learn in the thymus not to mistake the ...

The idea of turning back the clock on the immune system has moved from science fiction to a concrete experimental strategy. A ...

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, has announced up to $37 million to restore function to the thymus through funding ...

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 ...

Swiss biotech TECregen has raised 10 million Swiss francs ($12.6 million) in seed financing to advance its thymus regeneration platform, a niche but fast-growing area of immune medicine. The round was ...
