UCLA scientists have developed advanced miniature 3D tumor organoid models that make it possible to study glioblastoma tumors ...

Researchers have determined that type II innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), a type of immune cell, can change its characteristics and functions after a cancer patient receives stem cells from a donor, ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this process possible. Among the discoveries is PEDS1, a gene now linked to a ...

In a groundbreaking development, scientists have uncovered a type of immortal cell in laboratory settings, offering unprecedented potential for medical research and treatment. These cells, with their ...

Researchers have developed a new laboratory model grown from stem cells that replicates the human amniotic sac in the first two to four weeks after fertilization. The structure, which the researchers ...

Pioneering work turns stem cells into brain cells in cultures to potentially treat disorders. Research pioneers turn skin cells from patients with psychiatric conditions into stem cells and then brain ...

AMES, Iowa – A decade ago, Raquel Espin Palazon discovered that inflammatory signaling pathways must switch on for embryos to produce blood stem cells. The latest work from her lab shows the potential ...

Membrane fusion and budding mediate fundamental biological processes like intracellular trafficking, exocytosis, and endocytosis. For many decades, fusion has been thought to open a nanometer-range ...

A research team led by Professor June M. Kwak from the Department of New Biology at DGIST (President Kunwoo Lee), in collaboration with Professor Jong Kyoung Kim’s team at POSTECH, has uncovered the ...

“Allogeneic transplants can be very effective, and potentially lifesaving, but not all immune cells given to a recipient are reproduced from donor cells,” said Jonathan Serody, MD. “Innate type 2 ...
