The research team grew “human organoids” (mini-organs of the gut, liver, and brain) from reprogrammed stem cells in a lab dish.

Scientists have for the first time created a functional human liver from stem cells derived from skin and blood and say their success points to a future where much-needed livers and other ...

To develop their new system, the researchers obtained liver cells from individual donors and cultured them alongside fibroblasts, which provided structural support. By tweaking the culture conditions ...

A human mature adipose tissue organoid containing adipocytes, fibroblast, and endo-thelial cells: Red = Actin, Green = Bodipy (specific for adipocytes) Blue = DAPI (nuclei), Pink = CD31 ...

However, developing gene-based therapies to treat viral liver disease requires effective delivery of therapeutic molecules to human liver cells. Since these viruses replicate only in human hepatocytes ...

The team successfully disrupted the virus's ability to infect human liver cells in the laboratory using a compound already in clinical trials against cancer -- laying the groundwork for animal ...

Researchers have used artificial intelligence to design thousands of new DNA switches that can precisely control the expression of a gene in different cell types. Their new approach opens the ...

On Tuesday, BioHarvest Sciences Inc. BHST published ‘in vitro' test results for its new olive cell compound, which can reduce fat accumulation in human liver cells. BioHarvest demonstrated that ...
