The cytoskeleton gives cells their shape and helps them move. Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and Ludwig Maximilian University now show that, in neural stem cells, proteins of the cytoskeleton are ...

Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...

We have identified the gene that, when activated, initiates the developmental programme that results in cells forming a human ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four ...

Two proteins with opposing functions orchestrate the development and maintenance of healthy skin, Stanford Medicine ...

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), including embryonic and induced (hESCs and hiPSCs, respectively) lines, can generate a broad range of organoids, that is, three-dimensional self-organized ...

In recent years, the field of stem cell and developmental biology has seen remarkable breakthroughs that have deepened our understanding of how organisms grow, age and regenerate, with major ...

Researchers have mapped variation in human stem cells that explains how cells of an individual may shape a unique 'developmental dance' at the molecular level, thereby controlling how the brain and ...

A study in mice has found that maternal gut microbiome composition during pregnancy has long-term effects on offspring stem cell growth and development. The researchers, headed by Parag Kundu, PhD, at ...

On a YouTube livestream, Berkeley City College students carefully study the movements of stem cells to observe what they do ...

For the first time, researchers from both Sheba Medical Center and Tel Aviv University have grown human kidney organoids (a synthetic 3D organ culture) from tissue stem cells in the laboratory, ...

A man and a woman with a rare and devastating autoimmune disease have been in remission for more than 15 years after ...
