Excited to share our recent work in Cell Stem Cell, led by Georgia Lea, characterising determinants of DNA methylation patterning in human trophoblast stem cells! A great collaboration with ...

Stem-cell differentiation is the process by which a more specialised cell is formed from a stem cell, leading to loss of some of the stem cell's developmental potential. Stem-cell differentiation ...

First Mouse With Two Male Parents to Reach Adulthood Jan. 28, 2025 — A team of stem cell scientists have successfully used embryonic stem cell engineering to create a bi-paternal mouse -- a ...

Stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into more mature, specialised cells. Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent ...

The Oregon Stem Cell Center conducts basic and applied research in the field of Stem Cell Biology with the long term goal to harness the properties of stem cells for regenerative medicine and cell ...

Every cell in our body contains the entire genetic program to become any cell type. Such cells are called “stem cells”. But once turned into a muscle cell, it can never evolve into a neuron. So, we ...

In MS, immune system cells mistakenly attack myelin. With stem cell treatment, doctors use chemotherapy to destroy these existing immune cells. Then, they introduce the new stem cells, which are ...

The placental progenitor stem cell is the cytotrophoblast cell ... EVT but is neither invasive nor proliferative. This trophoblast cell population forms the cell islands, septum, chorionic ...

This study has preliminarily revealed the role of ACVR2A in trophoblast cell function, including its effects on migration, invasion, proliferation, and clonal formation, as well as its downstream ...

UCSF scientists have discovered a new type of stem cell that helps young brains grow but is also capable of forming the cells found in tumors. The breakthrough could explain how adult brain cells take ...

Francis Crick Institute scientists developed a rudimentary human spine via stem cells in a laboratory. They have created a “trunk-like structure” that is around 1 to 2 millimeters long.

Jan. 30, 2025 — A research group has developed new advanced light-controlled tools that enable precise control of proteins in real time in living cells. This groundbreaking research opens doors ...
