A new microchip could help scientists uncover secrets of heart regeneration in baby mice
CRISPR tagging improves accuracy of model cells grown from stem cells
Novel method identifies which master controllers of gene activity are essential to making adult cells of any type
Bioengineered hybrid muscle fiber for regenerative medicine
Regeneration of muscle tissue was achieved by combining direct cell reprogramming with natural-synthetic hybrid scaffold as structural support
Scientists reverse age-related vision loss, glaucoma damage in mice
Scientists have successfully restored vision in mice by turning back the clock on aged eye cells in the retina to recapture youthful gene function
Boosting stem cell activity can enhance immunotherapy benefits
Immune-system T cells have been reprogrammed into regenerative stem cell-like memory (TSCM) cells that are long-lived, highly active “super immune cells” with strong antitumor activity
New stem cell type may lead to advances in regenerative medicine
New “intermediate” embryonic stem cell type from multiple species that can contribute to chimeras and create precursors to sperm and eggs in a culture dish. The findings could lead to a host of advances in basic biology, regenerative medicine, and reproductive technology
Continuous monitoring of proteins a game-changer for patients
A world-first discovery could lead to faster and more effective treatments for chronic health complications, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer, with ‘fluorescent’ in vivo biosensors
‘Mini-lungs’ reveal early stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection
‘Mini-lungs’ grown from tissue donated to hospitals have provided a team of scientists with important insights into how COVID-19 damages the lungs. Researchers detail the mechanisms underlying SARS-CoV-2 infection and the early innate immune response in the lungs
