Chimpanzee naive pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can now be grown in cellular cultures, reveals a recent study. They successfully created chimpanzee early embryo models, called 'blastoids,' and found ...

Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not even close. Senescence is the loss of a cell’s power to divide and grow, thus ...

Researchers have succeeded in generating high-quality feline embryonic stem cells using sperm and eggs from testes and ovaries discarded during sterilization surgery. As different as they may seem, ...

Descriptions of the embryo go back at least to the time of Aristotle, but it has only been since the late 19 th century and early 20 th century that advances in experimental approaches allowed ...

For several years, researchers studied human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to understand the unique features of these pluripotent cells, but on their own, they poorly resembled the complex structures ...

Jennifer Zenker receives funding from NHMRC and Viertel Foundation. Most people have heard of stem cells. They are often described as “miracle” cells –ones that can grow into any other type of cell in ...

THOUGH THEY'RE CURRENTLY only approved to treat a small group of diseases, researchers are exploring a whole world of possibilities when it comes to stem cells. “It’s an exciting field,” says Jian ...

Scientists at the Leibniz Institute on Aging – Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) in Jena have discovered a previously unknown function of immune cells in the bone marrow. Embryonic macrophages – ...

KYOTO, Japan -- Kyoto University said Tuesday it will start providing human embryonic stem cells by July to colleges and private companies for clinical trials. The cells, like induced pluripotent stem ...
