Stem cells are the raw materials of the body, the cells from which all other cells with specific tasks are formed. Nanoparticle “backpack” repairs damaged…
Researchers have revealed the cellular mysteries behind aging. A new explanation for aging has been developed by researchers who have shown that genetic abnormalities that…
Better diagnosis and treatment of age-related macular degeneration could be in the future after a new genetic breakthrough. Discovery of molecular signatures of age-related macular…

After the use of their tissue platform, the researchers observed regeneration of tissues and shoulder function recovery. The new complex tissue platform can restore damaged…
Technical University of Munich researchers discover that treatment with cardiac progenitor cells can result in the formation of functional heart cells in damaged areas after…
A graphic depicts the “two faces of alpha-synuclein” and the transition from normal states (upper, organized molecular machines on a well-defined grid) to pathologic states…
Recent research finds that the insulin receptor protein (INSR) is pivotal for brain stem cell longevity and growth. According to a Rutgers University study, the…

The new multi-organ chip has the size of a glass microscope slide and allows the culture of up to four human engineered tissues, whose location…
After episodes of sleep deprivation, eye problems such as dryness and itching are common. Long-term sleep deprivation can increased the risk for eye disease. Sleep…
Cell nucleus illustration. University of California Riverside-led study identifies how blood stem cells maintain their fate. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that specify and maintain the…
MIT biology professor Yukiko Yamashita has spent much of her career exploring how asymmetrical cell divisions occur. This type of cell division allows cells to…
Human blood stem cells emerging from specialized endothelial cells in the wall of an embryonic aorta. UCLA scientists’ confirmation of this process clarifies a longstanding…
Findings could lead to targeted approach for treating aging. Research from the Babraham Institute has developed a method to ‘time jump’ human skin cells by…
