Researchers Restore Sight in Mice by Turning Skin Cells Into Light-Sensing Eye Cells

Researchers have discovered a technique for directly reprogramming skin cells into light-sensing rod photoreceptors used for vision, sidestepping the ... read more

Second Patient Has Been Cured of HIV, Study Suggests

A study of the second HIV patient to undergo successful stem cell transplantation from donors with a HIV-resistant gene, finds that there was no active viral infection in the patient's blood 30 ... read more

New Injection Technique May Boost Spinal Cord Injury Repair Efforts

Researchers describe a new method for delivering neural precursor cells to spinal cord injuries in rats, reducing the risk of further injury and boosting the propagation of potentially reparative ... read more

Solving a Biological Puzzle: How Stress Causes Gray Hair

Scientists have found evidence to support long-standing anecdotes that stress causes hair graying. Researchers found that in mice, the type of nerve involved in the fight-or-flight response causes ... read more

Experimental Drug Offers Hope for Preventing Cancer Relapse

A drug that is well-tolerated in patients and prevents cancer coming back in mice has been ... read more

New in Vivo Priming Strategy to Train Stem Cells Can Enhance Cardiac Repair Effectiveness

A stem cell biologist from City University of Hong Kong (CityU), together with his collaborators, has developed a novel strategy, called in vivo priming, to 'train' the stem cells to stay ... read more

Stem Cells and Nerves Interact in Tissue Regeneration and Cancer Progression

Researchers show that different stem cell populations are innervated in distinct ways. Innervation may therefore be crucial for proper tissue regeneration. They also demonstrate that cancer stem ... read more

Immunotherapy Using 'Young Cells' Offers Promising Option Against Cancer

A new study suggests that the age of certain immune cells used in immunotherapy plays a role in how effective it is. These cells -- natural killer (NK) cells -- appear to be more effective the ... read more

How Skin Cells Prepare to Heal Wounds

Researchers have published the first comprehensive overview of the major changes that occur in mammalian skin cells as they prepare to heal wounds. Results from the study provide a blueprint for ... read more

New Technique 'Prints' Cells to Create Diverse Biological Environments

With the help of photolithography and programmable DNA, researchers have created a new technique that can rapidly 'print' two-dimensional arrays of cells and proteins that mimic a wide ... read more

Solving the Riddle of Superbug Toxin Damage to Gut

Scientists have revealed that a bacterial superbug can prevent stem cells in the gut from carrying out their vital role of regenerating the inner lining of the ... read more

Blood Stem Cells Boost Immunity by Keeping a Record of Previous Infections

Scientists have uncovered a surprising property of blood stem cells: not only do they ensure the continuous renewal of blood cells and contribute to the immune response triggered by an infection, but ... read more

How Stem Cells Repair Damage from Heart Attacks

Researchers have uncovered stem cell-activated mechanisms of healing after a heart attack. Stem cells restored cardiac muscle back to its condition before the heart attack, in turn providing a ... read more

New Method to Grow Human Blood Vessels

A team of researchers recently proved the ability to grow human-derived blood vessels in a pig -- a novel approach that has the potential for providing unlimited human vessels for transplant ... read more

Scientists say they have successfully turned back the biological hands of time, coaxing adult human cells in the laboratory to revert to a primitive state, and unlocking their potential to replace ... read more

Producing Human Tissue in Space

Scientists have sent adult human stem cells to the International Space Station (ISS). Researchers will explore the production of human tissue in ... read more

Researchers Discover New Stem Cells That Can Generate New Bone

A population of stem cells with the ability to generate new bone has been newly discovered by a group of ... read more

Egg Stem Cells Do Not Exist, New Study Shows

Researchers have analyzed all cell types in the human ovary and found that the hotly debated so-called egg stem cells do not ... read more

Inhalation Therapy Shows Promise Against Pulmonary Fibrosis in Mice, Rats

A new study shows that lung stem cell secretions -- specifically exosomes and secretomes -- delivered via nebulizer, can help repair lung injuries due to multiple types of pulmonary fibrosis in mice ... read more

Cells Carrying Parkinson's Mutation Could Lead to New Model for Studying Disease

Parkinson's disease researchers have used gene-editing tools to introduce the disorder's most common genetic mutation into marmoset monkey stem cells and to successfully tamp down cellular ... read more

A Molecular Atlas of Skin Cells

Our skin protects us from physical injury, radiation and microbes, and at the same time produces hair and facilitates perspiration. Details of how skin cells manage such disparate tasks have so far ... read more

Bone or Cartilage? Presence of Fatty Acids Determines Skeletal Stem Cell Development

In the event of a bone fracture, fatty acids in our blood signal to stem cells that they have to develop into bone-forming cells. If there are no blood vessels nearby, the stem cells end up forming ... read more

Drug Cocktail Holds Promise for Spinal Injuries

Scientists have discovered a combination of two commonly available drugs that could help the body heal spinal ... read more
