Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells ...

The study reveals that these neighbouring cells are significantly more vulnerable to ageing-related damage, offering fresh ...

Microscopy image of a PGA at day 8 showing the early tissues supporting the embryo, including the amniotic sac and the yolk sac-like structures, surrounded by (extra-embryonic) mesoderm tissue.

Researchers have discovered a rare new type of diabetes that affects babies early in life. The condition is caused by changes ...

The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

Support cells surrounding stem cells rather than stem cells alone, are far more vulnerable to ageing and may hold the key to understanding how tissues age and lose their generative capacity.

A new radioimmunotherapy approach has been shown to successfully eliminate cancer stem cells (CSCs) in preclinical models of ovarian cancer, outperforming the current gold standard. This research, ...

Recently, Quinn Peterson and colleagues from Mayo Clinic, USA, discovered a method for making human alpha cells from cultures of immature stem cells. This work was recently published in Stem Cell ...

A Swedish startup aims to dominate stem cell production while nanotechnology is helping to transform cancer care. What does ...
