Targeted stem-cell attack could make transplants safer
Blood stem-cell transplants show promise for treating genetic and immune disorders, as well as cancers, but are currently risky
Tendon stem cells could revolutionize injury recovery
Discovery of tendon stem cells could be a game-changer when it comes to treating tendon injuries, avoiding surgery
Transplanted stem cells used to grow fully functional lungs in mice
Researchers were able to grow fully functional lungs in mouse embryos using transplanted stem cells
Stem cell therapy helps broken hearts heal in unexpected way
The study reports that injecting living or even dead heart stem cells into the injured hearts of mice triggers an acute inflammatory process, which in turn generates a wound healing-like response to enhance the mechanical properties of the injured area
Cells thrive in blood-based bioink
3D bioprinted structures made with human platelet-derived bioink are particularly hospitable to cells, promoting proliferation without the need for animal products
Machine learning used to pattern stem cells – a vital step in organ modeling
Researchers discovered a method to control the patterns stem cells form in a dish
Transplanting human nerve cells into a mouse brain reveals how they wire
Novel strategy to transplant human neurons as individual cells into the mouse brain and to follow their development over time
Heart attack modeled with human stem cells
Toward the development of individual model of ischemic heart disease. A model of ischemic heart disease was developed using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC). This model can provide a useful platform for developing effective drugs without sacrificing animals
