Novel Nanometer Scaffolds Regulate the Biological Behaviors of Neural Stem Cells
July 25, 2013 — The surface characteristics of nanoscaffolds made by nanotechnology are more similar to the three-dimensional topological structure of the extracellular matrix and the effects on the biological ... > full story -
Scientists Unable to Find Evidence of 'Embryonic-Like' Cells in Marrow of Adult Mice
July 24, 2013 — Research on human embryonic stem cells has been a political and religious lightning rod for more than a decade. Scientists say they have been unable to identify any very small, pluripotent cells in ... > full storyMore: -
New Stem Cell Gene Therapy Gives Hope to Prevent Inherited Neurological Disease
July 24, 2013 — Scientists have used stem cell gene therapy to treat a fatal genetic brain disease in mice for the first ... > full story -
Between B Cells and T Cells: Transcription Factor EBF1 Reminds Cells Who They Are
July 23, 2013 — Mature cells develop through a number of immature stages. During this process, they must remember the specialization they are committed to. For immune system B cells, researchers have discovered that ... > full story -
Keeping Centrioles in Check to Ensure Proper Cell Division
July 23, 2013 — How cell division occurs and is coordinated with organismal development is subject of intense research interest, as is how this process malfunctions in the development of tumors. Researchers have ... > full story -
A Ginkgo Biloba Extract Promotes Proliferation of Endogenous Neural Stem Cells
July 23, 2013 — Neural stem cells proliferate in the subventricular zone and hippocampal dentate gyrus of adult mammals. However, the number of endogenous neural stem cells is insufficient to prevent cerebral ... > full story -
Stem Cell Discovery Furthers Research on Cell-Based Therapy and Cancer
July 19, 2013 — Stem-cell researchers have found a key role for a protein called BMI1 that may help scientists direct the development of tissues to replace damaged organs in the human ... > full story -
More Versatile Approach to Creating Stem Cells Discovered
July 19, 2013 — Stem cells are key to the promise of regenerative medicine: the repair or replacement of injured tissues with custom grown substitutes. Essential to this process are induced pluripotent stem cells ... > full story -
Immunity: A Secret to Making Macrophages
July 18, 2013 — Biologists have worked out the details of a mechanism that leads undifferentiated blood stem cells to become macrophages -- immune cells that attack bacteria and other foreign pathogens. The process ... > full story
