Stem cells from the endometrium can be collected through a biopsy or in menstrual blood. Under the right conditions, they can differentiate into cell types including neurons and cartilage, ...

The isolation of embryonic stem cells in 1998 was a fundamental breakthrough for biology. But despite high hopes new medical treatments based on those stem cells haven't materialized.

Even though these adult pluripotent stem cells (aPSCs) are found in many different types of animals (such as sponges, hydras, planarian flatworms, acoel worms, and some sea squirts) the mechanism ...

“We use the stem cells, which are like a blank canvas, and use them to induce different cell types using our CRISPR tools,” Lodewijik said. This method had the advantage of allowing different cell ...

Researchers have created a way to guide and control the development of stem cells into specific tissues and organs, opening the door to developing a means of one day tackling complex diseases like ...

Nursery of the blood: How stem cells calm the body's immune response Date: March 21, 2025 Source: Goethe University Frankfurt Summary: Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through ...

Stem cells can fight disease from the inside out. But not all treatments are created equal. By Mohana Ravindranath The promise of stem cell therapy is powerful. Scientists can draw versatile cells ...

If stem cells were able to multiply uncontrollably, this would lead to uncontrolled growth, as in the case of cancer. WOX5 is an important signaling molecule that regulates stem cells in the meristem.

Human blood stem cells have been made in a laboratory for the first time, which could significantly improve how we treat certain types of cancer.. The lab-grown cells have so far only been tested ...

Stem cells are immature cells that can develop into many different cell types — including neurons that make dopamine. Positive results One of the new studies involved 12 people in the U.S. and ...

Said Watt, "Using stem cells from patients with heart failure caused by chemo, we are actively developing new drugs and cell-based treatments that we believe will transform the lives of patients ...
