Researchers found that neural crest stem cells are uniquely capable of reprogramming, challenging current reprogramming ...

Three people with severely impaired vision who received stem-cell transplants have experienced substantial improvements in ...

Researchers have identified a groundbreaking link between the CHCHD2 gene and Huntington’s disease (HD), a genetic ...

Stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into more mature, specialised cells. Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other ...

A new therapy may delay Alzheimer's disease progression by years, according to a study by researchers at Texas A&M University ...

A stem-cell derived human embryo model showing blue cells (embryo), yellow cells (yolk sac) and pink cells (placenta). Scientists have grown an entity that closely resembles an early human embryo ...

If cells are removed from the embryo they will differentiate into any cell type. These are called embryonic stem cells. Some stem cells remain in the bodies of adults as adult stem cells.

New research into the long-term dynamics of transplanted stem cells in a patient's body explains how age affects stem cell survival and immune diversity, offering insights that could make transplants ...

An international team of neuroscientists, led by Duke-NUS Medical School, have uncovered a mechanism that controls the reactivation of neural stem cells, which are crucial for repairing and ...
