A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...

Background: The "stem cell theory of cancer" states that a subpopulation of cells with stem cell-like properties plays a central role in the formation, sustainment, spread, and drug resistant ...

Life begins with a tiny orchestra of stem cells, setting the stage for the body’s grand symphony of development. As the performance unfolds, a dynamic interplay of factors takes center stage, ...

Diffuse midline glioma (DMG), H3K27-altered, is a lethal pediatric high-grade tumor, lacking effective treatment options, primarily depending on clinical trials. Epigenetic agent-based immunotherapy ...

Pair showed that adult cells can be reprogrammed to an embryonic state. I think that all Nobel prize winners should sport badass hair like this Gurdon guy. On a more serious note, this is an awesome ...

Scientists are closing in on a deceptively simple idea with radical implications: that a single protein signal in the blood ...

Stem cells elicit immunomodulatory properties through surface protein expression and their secretome. These properties allow stem cells to influence the ...

Test: Researcher Maedeh Mozneb readies experiments for space launch. Beverly Grove-based Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is in the midst of its first-ever attempt to fully produce stem cells in space and ...
