Stem Cell Treatments Improve Heart Function After Heart Attack
February 14, 2012 Stem cell therapy moderately improves heart function after a heart attack, according to a systematic review. But the researchers behind the review say larger clinical trials are needed to establish ... > full story -
Radiation Treatment Generates Cancer Stem Cells from Less Aggressive Breast Cancer Cells, Study Suggests
February 13, 2012 Breast cancer stem cells are thought to be the sole source of tumor recurrence and are known to be resistant to radiation therapy and don’t respond well to chemotherapy. Researchers report for ... > full story -
Neurologic Improvement Detected in Rats Receiving Stem Cell Transplant
February 10, 2012 Researchers report that early transplantation of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells into the lateral ventricles of neonatal rats with birth-related brain damage is possible, and that the ... > full story -
Nanotube Therapy Takes Aim at Breast Cancer Stem Cells
February 9, 2012 Researchers have again shown that injecting multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into tumors and heating them with a quick, 30-second laser treatment can kill ... > full story -
Scientists Use Old Theory to Discover New Targets in Fight Against Breast Cancer
February 7, 2012 Reviving a theory first proposed in the late 1800s that the development of organs in the normal embryo and the development of cancers are related, scientists have studied organ development in mice to ... > full story -
Exercise Triggers Stem Cells in Muscle
February 6, 2012 Researchers have determined that an adult stem cell present in muscle is responsive to exercise, a discovery that may provide a link between exercise and muscle health. The findings could lead to new ... > full story -
Key Finding in Stem Cell Self-Renewal
February 6, 2012 Scientists have proposed a mechanism for the control of whether embryonic stem cells continue to proliferate and stay stem cells, or differentiate into adult cells like brain, liver or skin. The work ... > full story -
Researchers Develop Method of Directing Stem Cells to Increase Bone Formation and Bone Strength
February 6, 2012 Scientists have developed a novel technique to enhance bone growth by using a molecule which, when injected into the bloodstream, directs the body's stem cells to travel to the surface of ... > full story -
Chaos in the Cell's Command Center
February 1, 2012 Researchers have determined the critical role one enzyme, lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), plays as mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) differentiate. This research may provide targets for ... > full story -
Stem Cells Could Drive Hepatitis Research Forward
February 1, 2012 Researchers have produced liver-like cells from induced pluripotent stem cells. By creating liver-like cells, scientists can study why people respond differently to Hepatitis ... > full story
