Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not ...
A new technique for mechanically manipulating stem cells could lead to new stem cell treatments, which have yet to fulfill their therapeutic potential. A new technique developed by McGill researchers ...
A new study by Canadian and U.S. researchers is shedding light on how the social media platform TikTok can be used to recruit ...
MSK physician-scientists Dr. Viviane Tabar and Dr. Lorenz Studer have developed a treatment for Parkinson’s disease that involves creating nerve cells from embryonic stem cells and transplanting them ...
Stem cells in the brain, called neural stem cells (NSCs), have the ability to proliferate, differentiate, and undergo a process of cell death. Most of the NSCs in our brains exist in a dormant state, ...
Stem cell therapy is an emerging treatment for type 2 diabetes. Although it’s not yet FDA-approved in the United States, it is a rapidly expanding and promising field of research. Stem cells are ...
These papers demonstrate that human ESC cultures can be enriched for a single and specific progenitor cell type. Furthermore, the cells, which by all measures appear to be neuronal progenitor cells, ...
Adult stem cells have captured researchers’ interest since their discovery in the 1960s. Due to their unique capacity to self-renew and differentiate into multiple cell types, scientists find them ...
After HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hosted a roundtable on reducing regulations on stem cells earlier this month, experts have raised concerns about a potential flourishing of questionable stem ...
