Scientists Unexpectedly Discover Stress-Resistant Stem Cells in Fat Tissue Removed During Liposuction
June 5, 2013 — Researchers have isolated a new population of primitive, stress-resistant human pluripotent stem cells easily derived from fat tissue that are able to differentiate into virtually every cell type in ... > full story -
Scientists Discover How HIV Kills Immune Cells; Findings Have Implications for HIV Treatment
June 5, 2013 — Untreated HIV infection destroys a person's immune system by killing infection-fighting cells, but precisely when and how HIV wreaks this destruction has been a mystery until now. New research ... > full story -
Targeting an Aspect of Down Syndrome
June 5, 2013 — Researchers have determined how a gene that is known to be defective in Down syndrome is regulated and how its dysregulation may lead to neurological defects, providing insights into potential ... > full story -
Scientists Map the Wiring of the Biological Clock
June 5, 2013 — Biologists have discovered a crucial part of the biological clock: the wiring that sets its accuracy to within a few minutes out of the 1440 minutes per day. This wiring uses the neurotransmitter, ... > full story -
New Gene That Is Essential for Nuclear Reprogramming
June 5, 2013 — Researchers are still fascinated by the idea of reprogramming the cells of any tissue, turning them into cells with the capacity to differentiate into cells of a completely different type -- ... > full story -
Neuronal Regeneration and the Two-Part Design of Nerves
June 5, 2013 — Researchers have evidence that a single gene controls both halves of nerve cells, and their research demonstrates the need to consider that design in the development of new treatments for ... > full story -
Genetic Editing Shows Promise in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
June 4, 2013 — Using a novel genetic "editing" technique, biomedical engineers have been able to repair a defect responsible for one of the most common inherited disorders, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, in cell ... > full story -
New Way to Improve Stem Cells' Cartilage Formation
June 4, 2013 — Bioengineers are interested in finding innovative ways to grow new cartilage from a patient's own stem cells, and, thanks to a new study, such a treatment is a step closer to ... > full story -
Biomarker Could Help Scientists Choose the Right Cell Line When Conducting Stem Cell Experiments
June 4, 2013 — Stem cells that strongly express a gene called WNT3 are biased to develop into cells and tissues including pancreas, liver and bladder. This discovery suggests that other genes may serve as ... > full story -
Scientists Find Potential New Clues for Identifying Breast Cancer Risk
June 4, 2013 — New research provides critical insights into how normal breast precursor cells may be genetically vulnerable to develop into cancer. Scientists discovered that a particular class of normal breast ... > full story
