A newly discovered pair of stem cell lineages drives the formation of both tooth roots and the bone that anchors them. Understanding how these cells switch roles could pave the way for regenerating ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes structural damage to neural circuits, which in turn leads to sensory and motor dysfunction. Transplantation of neural precursor cells/stem cells provides a potential ...

A clinical trial for spina bifida treatment suggests that a surgical approach relying on stem cells is safe for patients. Its ...

Years before he conducted the research that would earn him a Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, Shinya Yamanaka, MD, ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A University of Minnesota Twin Cities research team has combined 3D printing, stem cell biology, and lab-grown tissues to address ...

A key molecular dynamic could be the key to fighting tumors while allowing patients to still receive life-saving cell ...

Texas A&M researchers found a way to make stem cells produce double the normal number of mitochondria using nanoflower particles. These energized stem cells then transfer their surplus “power packs” ...
