In a separate experiment, they instructed the stem cells to form a beating, heart-like structure, complete with a central chamber and a network of blood vessels.

New research finds out how to drive stem cells to form new bone tissue, and these results could help improve outcomes for spinal surgeries. Health Conditions; Health Products ...

One is that immature stem cells may still be lurking among the mature cardiomyocytes, and they could go on to form tumors after implants. That wasn't seen in this case.

Using computer-designed proteins, researchers can now direct human stem cells to form new blood vessels in the lab. This advance in regenerative medicine offers new hope for repairing damaged ...

A single infusion of a stem cell-based treatment may have cured 10 out of 12 people with the most severe form of type 1 diabetes. One year later, these 10 patients no longer need insulin.

By day 7, the normal stem cells had begun to look and act like heart cells. But the mutant cells didn’t beat. Notably, when normal PRC2 was restored, they began to behave more normally. “We can now ...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), a continuing muse in cell therapy research, could potentially be used to improve flaws associated with conventional CAR T therapy.

Embryonic stem (ES) cells and their differentiated progeny offer tremendous potential for regenerative medicine, even in the field of drug discovery. There is an urgent need for clinically ...

If we can eventually get stem cells to form a viable embryo, a functional fetus, ... In the last year, scientists have pushed stem-cell-derived embryos further than ever before.
