The simple term “stem cell” actually refers to many different types of cells. The tissue-specific stem cells, or adult stem cells, replenish tissues throughout our lives. Embryonic stem cells exist ...
Culturing adult stem cell-derived organoids requires a balance between stem cell self-renewal and differentiation, but this can be challenging to accomplish. Here, the authors present an optimized ...
A major challenge in developing stem cell-based cures for disease is maturing those cells into adult cell types that can be used for transplantation or to study human disease. Dr. Mark Mercola has a ...
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 ...
Researchers continue to develop alternatives to fetal tissue in developing vaccines, including the use of adult stem cells and pluripotent stem cells (genetically reprogrammed adult cells). Some ...
Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine pioneered a first of its kind gene therapy model that offers a potential ...
