A study published in Cell Research advances a central idea in stem cell biology by identifying a checkpoint that controls the ...

Haploid embryonic stem cell research explores the utilisation of cells that contain a single set of chromosomes to probe gene function with unprecedented clarity. This unique genomic configuration ...

Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not even close. Senescence is the loss of a cell’s power to divide and grow, thus ...

The same is true for other mammals such as monkeys and mice. While some other creatures, most notably salamanders and ...

A team of stem cell scientists have successfully used embryonic stem cell engineering to create a bi-paternal mouse—a mouse with two male parents—that lived until adulthood. Their results, published ...

HexemBio has launched with a seed round led by Draper Associates to advance a blood stem cell rejuvenation therapy backed by Robert Langer.

January 27, 2009 — Geron Corp announced it has received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for a phase 1 trial of GRNOPC1, a cell therapy derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESC), in ...

Red indicates mouse embryonic stem cells and green indicates mouse epiblast stem cells. The two cell types were co-cultured under GSK3α inhibition and maintained their distinct identities.

Most people have heard of stem cells. They are often described as "miracle" cells –ones that can grow into any other type of cell in our bodies, promising revolutionary medical treatments. However, ...

Researchers have uncovered how proteins normally active only before birth can drive aggressive lung cancer, opening new avenues for future treatments. The study found that more aggressive lung cancers ...
