Then something amazing happened: the cancerous cells grew and continued to grow outside of her body. As Henrietta herself lay dying, the HeLa immortal cell line was born. This cell line has been ...

This could account for some reproducibility problems in cell line research, according to the authors of a comprehensive analysis of HeLa variants. After a year teaching an algorithm to differentiate ...

Research conducted on Henrietta Lacks’ biopsied (HeLa”) cells has played a key role in the development of both the polio and COVID-19 vaccines. However, the cells were saved and used by ...

It further asserts that Ultragenyx has "made a fortune by using Mrs Lacks's stolen cells as a factory to make its 'proprietary' gene therapy products." The case centres around the use of HeLa ...

These are known as HeLa cells because they were originally isolated from a woman named Henrietta Lacks. She went to Johns Hopkins Medical Center in 1951 and was diagnosed with cervical cancer. She ...

This video of a so-called HeLa cell dividing demonstrates how sensitive the cell division process is. While all is going well at the beginning of the video, as the clip nears its end you can see the ...

This research project used the fluorescent label, C5-BODIPY-ceramide, to distinguish between chlamydia-infected HeLa cells and uninfected HeLa cells. By using this label, we sorted and analyzed ...

In the suit, filed today (October 4), they argue that pharmaceutical giant Thermo Fisher Scientific continued to derive commercial benefit from so-called HeLa cells, which have been used in tens of ...
