Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent, depending on the number of cell types to which they can give rise. We provide scalable new tools, which include mosaic models ...

Dec. 18, 2024 — Scientists have generated human stem cell models which contain notochord -- a tissue in the developing embryo that acts like a navigation system, directing cells where to build ...

From totipotent stem cells at conception, to pluripotent, multipotent, oligopotent, and unipotent stem cells by adulthood – every disease essentially boils down to a dysfunction in the cells and ...

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) exist in multiple ... Double-positive MER51B + /LTR5-Hs + cells transiently express low levels of ZGA-associated transcripts but were not able to acquire a ...

Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent cells isolated from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, the early mammalian embryo that implants into the uterus. Embryonic stem cells self-renew by dividing ...

Stem cells are special in the way they can keep on replicating, and turn themselves into many other types of cell. Now scientists have discovered how their superpowers get a remarkable boost when they ...

The Oregon Stem Cell Center conducts basic and applied research in the field of Stem Cell Biology with the long term goal to harness the properties of stem cells for regenerative medicine and cell ...

Over the last few decades, one such experimental treatment known as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been at the forefront of progressive MS research. HSCT attempts to reset the ...

Dec. 16, 2024 — Researchers have uncovered unexpected diversity in the genetic processes that determine the sex of the African clawed frog, a significant discovery in what was already one of the ...

A man has flown across the world to donate his stem cells to his sister, who was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer. Colin Gwilliam flew 11,500 miles (18,400km) from his home in Wellington ...
