Stem cell-derived endothelial cell differentiation represents a rapidly advancing field that leverages the plasticity of pluripotent cells to generate functional vascular components. Central to the ...

Stem cells are unspecialised cells that can develop into any type of cell in the human body. So far, however, scientists only partially understand how the body controls the fate of these all-rounders, ...

Single-molecule imaging shows that three CBX2 protein molecules can seed Polycomb condensates that silence genes in stem cells. The discovery reveals how rare proteins organize genome regulation and ...

The retina is a thin layer of neural tissue at the back of the eye that detects light and converts it into signals, sent to the brain. During development, all the specialized neurons in the ...

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 ...

Although embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have been successfully derived from mice and rats, efforts to establish chimeric and germline-competent ESC lines in species beyond rodents have been unsuccessful.

Chinese researchers have developed a new stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease which reportedly provides rapid improvement in symptoms for patients suffering for decades from the neurological ...

Researchers use single-cell analysis to show how transplanted neural stem cells interact with the retina to preserve vision in retinitis pigmentosa.

In the early 2000s, dental clinician and stem cell researcher Songtao Shi’s six-year-old daughter lost her first tooth. Curious, Shi, then at the University of Pennsylvania, took a closer look at its ...
