Zebrafish May Hold the Answer to Repairing Damaged Retinas and Returning Eyesight to People
January 31, 2013 — Zebrafish, the staple of genetic research, may hold the answer to repairing damaged retinas and returning eyesight to people. Researchers have discovered that a zebrafish's stem cells can selectively ... > full story -
Researchers Decipher a Key Circuit in Regulating Genes Involved in Producing Blood Stem Cells
January 31, 2013 — Researchers have deciphered one of the gene regulation circuits which would make it possible to generate hematopoietic blood cells, i.e. blood tissue stem cells. This could benefit patients with ... > full story -
First Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Patients With Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young
January 31, 2013 — Scientists report the first generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells from patients with an uncommon form of diabetes, maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY). These cells offer a ... > full story -
'Petri Dish Lens' Gives Hope for New Eye Treatments
January 31, 2013 — A cure for congenital sight impairment caused by lens damage is closer following new research. Scientists in Australia are closer to growing parts of the human eye in the lab. They have, for the ... > full story -
Tuberculosis May Lurk in Bone Marrow Stem Cells of Infected Patients
January 30, 2013 — Tuberculosis is a devastating disease that kills nearly 2 million people worldwide each year. Now, in a classic case of bench-to-bedside research, scientists have discovered a possible reason for the ... > full story -
Stem Cells Boost Heart's Natural Repair Mechanisms
January 30, 2013 — Researchers, whose clinical trial results in 2012 demonstrated that stem cell therapy reduces scarring and regenerates healthy tissue after a heart attack, now have found that the stem cell technique ... > full story -
A Step Towards Repairing the Central Nervous System
January 29, 2013 — Despite recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of nerve injury, tissue-engineering solutions for repairing damage in the central nervous system (CNS) remain elusive, owing to the crucial and ... > full story -
Stem Cells Aid Recovery from Stroke, Study Suggests
January 27, 2013 — Stem cells from bone marrow or fat improve recovery after stroke in rats, finds a new study. Treatment with stem cells improved the amount of brain and nerve repair and the ability of the animals to ... > full story -
Patients' Own Skin Cells Are Transformed Into Heart Cells to Create 'Disease in a Dish'
January 27, 2013 — Researchers have unveiled the first maturation-based "disease in a dish" model for arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C). The model was created using induced pluripotent ... > full story -
Potential of Differentiated iPS Cells in Cell Therapy Without Immune Rejection
January 25, 2013 — A new study shows that tissues derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells in an experimental model were not rejected when transplanted back into genetically identical ... > full story
