Engineered Stem Cells Seek out and Kill HIV in Living Mice
April 12, 2012 Expanding on previous research providing proof-of-principle that human stem cells can be genetically engineered into HIV-fighting cells, a team of researchers have now demonstrated that these cells ... > full story -
Could Stem Cells Be the Cells' Default State?
April 12, 2012 In spite of considerable research efforts around the world, we still do not know the determining factors that confer stem cells their main particular features: capacity to self-renew and to divide ... > full story -
Development of the Glial Cell Revealed
April 11, 2012 A vast majority of cells in the brain are glial, yet our understanding of how they are generated, a process called gliogenesis, has remained enigmatic. Researchers have now identified a novel ... > full story -
Exploring the Risk and Rewards of Stem Cell Products
April 11, 2012 Scientists have developed a road map that could help guide researchers, stem cell product manufacturers, treating physicians and patients through the complex maze of imagining, creating and ... > full story -
Stem Cells from Pelvic Bone May Preserve Heart Function
April 11, 2012 A clinical trial is evaluating the use of stem cells from the pelvic bone marrow to improve heart function. Patients’ own stem cells may preserve heart muscle function after a heart ... > full story -
Skin and Umbilical Cord Cells Turned Directly Into Nerve Cells
April 11, 2012 Until recently, the production of pluripotent "multipurpose" stem cells from skin cells was considered to be the ultimate new development. In the meantime, it has become possible to directly convert ... > full story -
Growing Where No Cell Has Grown Before: Unique Suspension Technique Developed for Large-Scale Stem Cell Production
April 5, 2012 Researchers have developed a unique new technique for growing stem cells that may make possible cost-effective, large-scale stem cell manufacturing and ... > full story -
Purified Lung and Thyroid Progenitors Derived from Embryonic Stem Cells
April 5, 2012 Researchers have derived a population of pure lung and thyroid progenitor cells in vitro that successfully mimic the developmental milestones of lung and thyroid tissue ... > full story -
How Embryonic Stem Cells Orchestrate Human Development
April 5, 2012 Researchers show in detail how three genes within human embryonic stem cells regulate development, a finding that increases understanding of how to grow these cells for therapeutic ... > full story -
New Stem Cell Line Provides Safe, Prolific Source for Disease Modeling and Transplant Studies
April 5, 2012 Researchers have generated a new type of human stem cell that can develop into numerous types of specialized cells, including functioning pancreatic beta cells that produce insulin. Called endodermal ... > full story -
To Prevent Leukemia's Dreaded Return, Go for the Stem Cells
April 5, 2012 Researchers have found a way to stop leukemia stem cells in their tracks. The advance in mice suggests that a combination approach to therapy might stamp out chronic myeloid leukemia for ... > full story -
Arsenic Turns Stem Cells Cancerous, Spurring Tumor Growth
April 4, 2012 Researchers have discovered how exposure to arsenic can turn normal stem cells into cancer stem cells and spur tumor growth. Inorganic arsenic, which affects the drinking water of millions of people ... > full story
