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 -
Encouraging Results With Stem Cell Transplant for Brain Injury
February 1, 2012 — Experiments in brain-injured rats show that stem cells injected via the carotid artery travel directly to the brain, where they greatly enhance functional ... > full story -
Skin Cells Turned Into Neural Precusors, Bypassing Stem-Cell Stage
January 30, 2012 — Mouse skin cells can be converted directly into cells that become the three main parts of the nervous system, according to researchers. The finding is an extension of a previous study by the same ... > full story -
Need Muscle for a Tough Spot? Turn to Fat Stem Cells
January 30, 2012 — Stem cells derived from fat have a surprising trick up their sleeves: Encouraged to develop on a stiff surface, they undergo a remarkable transformation toward becoming mature muscle cells. The new ... > full story -
Collaborative Research Sheds Light on New Cancer Stem Cell Therapies
January 27, 2012 — New anti-cancer research has led to the development of a novel class of chemical inhibitors that specifically target cancer cells with ... > full story -
Environment That Nurtures Blood-Forming Stem Cells' Growth Identified
January 25, 2012 — Scientists have identified the environment in which blood-forming stem cells survive and thrive within the body, an important step toward increasing the safety and effectiveness of bone-marrow ... > full story -
Avastin, Sutent Increase Breast Cancer Stem Cells, Study Suggests
January 25, 2012 — Cancer treatments designed to block the growth of blood vessels were found to increase the number of cancer stem cells in breast tumors in mice, suggesting a possible explanation for why these drugs ... > full story -
In Schizophrenia Research, a Path to the Brain Through the Nose
January 25, 2012 — A significant obstacle to progress in understanding psychiatric disorders is the difficulty in obtaining living brain tissue for study so that disease processes can be studied directly. Recent ... > full story
