Dec. 18, 2024 — Scientists have generated human stem cell models which contain notochord -- a tissue in the developing embryo that acts like a navigation system, directing cells where to build ...
but not extra-embryonic tissues such as the placenta. Embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells are pluripotent stem cells. Ma et al. show that heterogeneous nuclear ...
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are pluripotent stem cells generated from adult cells by reprogramming. iPSCs have the same properties as embryonic stem cells, and therefore self-renew and ...
The Piedmont Triad Regenerative Medicine Engine (PTRME), funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), has awarded six regional companies $2.5 million in grants as part of its inaugural Ecosystem ...
Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a non-invasive method to improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy while reducing its harmful side effects.
