Most notably, this became an issue with “embryonic” stem cells, which in principle have the ability to become any cell type ...

Novel allogeneic stem cells and differentiated iPSCs are providing more physiologically relevant disease models.

When most veterinarians hear the term "stem cell therapy," their minds often go to autologous procedures – tissue harvested ...

This ability is made possible by pluripotent or multipotent stem cells, which can form (differentiate) almost all cell types of the body.

Understanding how cells differentiate during early embryonic development is crucial for advancing regenerative medicine and developmental biology. Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) have been ...

There’s use for pluripotent stem cells in disease diagnosis and treatment. Ultimately, Jing says, the hope is to both expand the giant panda population and make it healthier.

Keeping close watch on stem cells Date: November 1, 2024 Source: Osaka University Summary: Researchers have developed a new imagining system to monitor pluripotent stem cells during incubation ...

It turns out, however, that it's relatively easy to convert induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSC, with pluripotent meaning they can form any cell type). So researchers tried injecting these stem ...

The second stage involved turning the pluripotent cells into blood stem cells. “We first make thousands of small floating balls of cells, a few hundred cells in each ball, and direct them to ...

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." ...
