Stem cell research recently celebrated its 60th anniversary. Although the first publications in this field appeared in the early 1960s, it took another 20 years before the first embryonic stem cells ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a scalable 3D organoid model that captures key features of early limb development, revealing ...

Mitochondria can lose power like batteries, but they can potentially be regenerated—a promising development than can be used ...

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg can now demonstrate previously unexplained processes behind growth therapy. It ...

Syntax Bio, a synthetic biology company programming the next generation of cell therapies, today announced the publication of ...

Embryonic stem cells are powerful tools for understanding how organisms develop and how tissues regenerate. These cells have the remarkable ability to self ...

Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...

Fat tissue stem cells have shown a remarkable ability to heal spinal fractures and restore bone strength in rats. The ...

Scientists have discovered a method of helping human stem cells thrive in an animal embryo—a key development in efforts to ...

Descriptions of the embryo go back at least to the time of Aristotle, but it has only been since the late 19 th century and early 20 th century that advances in experimental approaches allowed ...

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the cornerstone of lifelong blood formation, arising during embryogenesis from specialised endothelial precursors in a process known as the ...
