A stride that marked the turn of the century—realizing the possibility of reprogramming embryonic and adult fibroblasts into pluripotent stem cells by the co-expression of only four gene ...

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain's support cells ...

Scientists report that they have used a cellular reprogramming methodology to allow the creation of neural networks that reproduce unique characteristics of human cells—different from those obtained ...

A new way of reprogramming our immune cells to shrink or kill off cancer cells has been shown to work in the otherwise hard to treat and devastating skin cancer, melanoma. The discovery demonstrates a ...

Studies on diseases that affect the human brain are usually based on animal models which cannot reproduce the complexity of human neuropathies. Therefore, these methodologies often fail when applied ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of ...

Researchers from Harvard Medical School, the University of Maine, and MIT have developed a method for reversing cellular aging. The groundbreaking research could be an alternative to gene therapy for ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at PSI and ETH Zurich have taken connective tissue cells that have been mechanically reprogrammed to resemble stem cells and transplanted them into damaged skin. In their ...

Life begins with a tiny orchestra of stem cells, setting the stage for the body’s grand symphony of development. As the performance unfolds, a dynamic interplay of factors takes center stage, ...
