Over the course of 40 days, the cells within the organoid self-organized into structures that resembled the early stages of brain and spinal cord development in a human embryo. This included the ...

“We’re talking about the very first steps of embryonic brain development, like in the first nine weeks of pregnancy,” he said. “They’re nowhere near an adult human brain and they don’t form anything ...

In a nutshell Female cells randomly use either the maternal or paternal X chromosome—this study shows that relying more ...

12 This combination better modeled the embryonic development and cell biology of the early embryo ... Experts from the Women’s Brain Foundation and bit.bio will explore the importance of sex-specific ...

Lissencephaly is a devastating genetic disease of children that affects the embryonic development of the brain. It is caused by haploinsufficiency of the Lis1 gene product, which seems to be ...

Scientists found that fruit fly embryos can develop through multiple genetic paths, not just one. This challenges traditional ideas.

Their work reveals the secrets of the Balbiani body (Bb), a remarkable structure that organizes essential molecules to guide early embryonic development. Using zebrafish models and cutting-edge ...

How cells utilize electric fields to guide their migration during embryonic development. As an embryo develops, cells ...

Researchers have successfully engineered bi-paternal mice, born from two male parents, that survived to adulthood using embryonic stem cell techniques.

They observed a clear correlation between less OGT activity and more severe effects on embryonic development. Their results showed that OGT played an important catalytic role, and it wasn't just ...
