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 ...
Jan. 28, 2025 — 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.
In MS, immune system cells mistakenly attack myelin. With stem cell treatment, doctors use chemotherapy to destroy these existing immune cells. Then, they introduce the new stem cells, which are ...
Hidden within our bones, marrow sustains life by producing billions of blood cells daily, from oxygen-carrying red cells to immune-boosting white cells. This vital function is often disrupted in ...
Because B-cell lymphoma develops in a type of white blood cell, the team examined their precursors, called hematopoietic stem cells, in the mice. Genetically disrupting inflammasome activity in ...
When we developed the ability to convert various cells into a stem cell, it held the promise of an entirely new type of therapy. Rather than getting the body to try to fix itself with its cells or ...
Aging affects adult stem cells present in various tissues, which de-regulates tissue homeostasis, its regenerative potential and repair. The primary cause of this functional decline of tissue ...
