Bacteria's Hidden Skill Could Pave Way for Stem Cell Treatments
January 17, 2013 — A discovery about the way in which bugs spread throughout the body could help to develop stem cell treatments. Researchers have found that bacteria are able to change the make-up of supporting cells ... > full story -
Drug Targets Hard-to-Reach Leukemia Stem Cells Responsible for Relapses
January 17, 2013 — Researchers have discovered that hard-to-reach, drug-resistant leukemia stem cells (LSCs) that overexpress multiple pro-survival protein forms are sensitive – and thus vulnerable – to a ... > full story -
Lack of Protein Sp2 Disrupts Neuron Creation in Brain
January 14, 2013 — A protein known as Sp2 is key to the proper creation of neurons from stem cells, according to new ... > full story -
Stem-Cell Approach Shows Promise for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
January 14, 2013 — Researchers have shown that transplanting stem cells derived from normal mouse blood vessels into the hearts of mice that model the pathology associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) ... > full story -
iPSCs Used to Define Treatment for Heart Disorder
January 11, 2013 — Researchers used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from a young patient with Long QT syndrome (LQTS), a congenital heart disorder, to determine a course of treatment that helped manage ... > full story -
Stem Cells Found to Heal Damaged Artery in Lab Study in Baboons
January 10, 2013 — Scientists have for the first time demonstrated that baboon embryonic stem cells can be programmed to completely restore a severely damaged artery. These early results show promise for eventually ... > full story -
3-D Biomimetic Scaffolds Support Regeneration of Complex Tissues from Stem Cells
January 10, 2013 — Stem cells can be grown on biocompatible scaffolds to form complex tissues such as bone, cartilage, and muscle for repair and regeneration of damaged or diseased tissue. However, to function ... > full story -
Next Steps in Potential Stem Cell Therapy for Diabetes: Study Looks at Differentiation of hESCs in Endocrine Cell Progression
January 10, 2013 — Researchers looked at the differences and similarities between two types of hESC-derived endocrine cell populations and primary human endocrine cells, with the longer-term goal of developing new stem ... > full story -
New Protein to Treat Damaged Bones Uncovered
