Stem cells hold tremendous potential in healthcare and research science, because they can become any type of cell. However, there were many impediments to using them. They cannot be obtained from ...

Researchers from Monash University in Melbourne and The University of Western Australia have demonstrated how a reprogramming method imitates embryonic epigenetic reset. Transient naive treatment (TNT ...

Although similar, the epigenomes of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) differ from those of the human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) they aim to replicate. These differences include ...

Using a blend of computer modeling, structural and cell-based studies, scientists at The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute have ...

At least now we have a hint of where we should be looking. "In addition, a couple of second generation reprogramming method, so called virus-free or transgene-free methods, were reported in Nature and ...

Method to improve the cell expansion step during joint regenerative therapies (like MACI therapy) to restore knee or other joint injuries in young, healthy patients, often athletes. An improved method ...

When neurons perish, the brain cannot replace them. Most organs maintain stem cells to repair damage, but the few neural progenitors that remain in the adult brain have very limited potential to grow ...
