Germinal centers are high-speed evolution machines. Tiny clusters in the lymph nodes, germinal centers refine antibodies through mutation and expansion until they produce high-affinity B cells adapted ...

In a study published in Developmental Cell, a team led by Prof. Robert K. Naumann from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and researchers from BGI ...

New imaging reveals a built-in safeguard that allows B cell populations to rapidly expand in germinal centers without introducing deleterious mutations. Germinal centers are high-speed evolution ...

All of living nature is subject to evolution. Living organisms are exposed to selection pressure, which means that those that are best able to assert themselves survive. This natural selection process ...

A review examines the prevailing theory of cancer evolution. The authors highlight both practical and theoretical limitations of the clonal model of cancer evolution and propose areas for improving ...
