Japan has approved two stem cell-based therapies for treating Parkinson's disease and heart failure in a world first, through ...

Hair is pretty tricky. Unlike almost every other organ in the human body, which finishes its development in the womb, the ...

The ability to create hair follicles that implant, grow, and regenerate has been elusive—until now.

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 ...

A study published in Stem Cell Reports demonstrates that genetically engineered human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) can ...

In recent years, the field of stem cell and developmental biology has seen remarkable breakthroughs that have deepened our understanding of how organisms grow, age and regenerate, with major ...

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the cornerstone of lifelong blood formation, arising during embryogenesis from specialised endothelial precursors in a process known as the ...

Japan has cleared two therapies that began with the same lab technique and ended in very different parts of the body. One is placed on the surface of the heart. The other is injected deep into 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 ...

A study in mice has found that maternal gut microbiome composition during pregnancy has long-term effects on offspring stem cell growth and development. The researchers, headed by Parag Kundu, PhD, at ...

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