'Pain sponge' derived from stem cells could soak up pain signals before they reach the brain
Scientists are developing a "sponge" that can soak up pain signals in the body before they reach the brain, potentially ...
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago have identified a molecular mechanism that directs embryonic stem cells to mature into endothelial cells -- the specialized cells that form blood ...
Researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord injuries ...
Representative immunofluorescence images showing normal oral epithelial cells (left) and early stages of oral cancer (right, showing blue cells invading the stroma) just 20 days after activation of ...
Stem cells in most organisms typically take cues from adjacent cells. But new research from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research has found that stem cells in the freshwater planarian Schmidtea ...
