A surprising discovery about how brain cells handle sugar could shift how scientists approach dementia and Alzheimer’s ...

A rare cell in the lining of lungs is fundamental to the organ-wide response necessary to repair damage from toxins like ...

The promise of stem cell therapy is powerful. Scientists can draw versatile cells from the human body and deliver them to repair injuries and fight disease from the inside out. But not all stem ...

Studer's team, for example, began looking at stem cells to treat brain diseases more than 25 years ago. "For us, it's quite an exciting time," he says, "finally seeing some of the fruit of that work." ...

So researchers tried injecting these stem-cell-derived cardiomyocytes into damaged hearts in experimental animals, in the hope that they would be incorporated into the damaged tissue.

Dragon Fruit stem diseases significantly threaten crop yield and agricultural productivity. While multiple capable dragon fruit disease detection systems already exist, there is a scarcity of research ...

Cellcolabs sources the stem cells for its treatments from healthy donors in Sweden aged between 18 and 30. The stem cells are extracted from the bone marrow via a needle inserted into the hip ...

Somatic Stem Cells Adult stem cells, called somatic stem cells, are derived from a human donor. Hematopoietic stem cells are the most widely known example. Scientists have found somatic stem cells in ...

In SUMOylation, a small protein named SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) tags target proteins inside a cell to influence their activity and/or function. These SUMO-tagged proteins, the researchers ...
