Humans have around 30 trillion cells in our adult bodies. Amazingly, each of these cells came from a handful of about 100 stem cells in the earliest days of development. The ability of these embryonic ...

A group of researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) has recently developed a new stem cell therapy with ...

For my entire career as a neurologist the ability to repair an injured spinal cord has been one of the holy grails. There has ...

After decades of hype and setbacks, scientists have made impressive progress into tricking stem cells into repairing organs. Stem cells (like the ones above, growing in petri dishes) are able to ...

Texas A&M researchers found a way to make stem cells produce double the normal number of mitochondria using nanoflower particles. These energized stem cells then transfer their surplus “power packs” ...

Scientists have developed a powerful new technique that allows them to observe how individual cells manufacture proteins ...

Researchers have tested a gene-edited stem cell transplant designed to shield healthy blood-forming cells from powerful cancer-targeting immunotherapies.

In the early 2000s, dental clinician and stem cell researcher Songtao Shi’s six-year-old daughter lost her first tooth. Curious, Shi, then at the University of Pennsylvania, took a closer look at its ...

Stem cells made a public splash with large research breakthroughs in the 90s and early 2000s. However, since then, stem cells have largely been adopted by the alternative medicine and wellness world ...

Researchers at Scripps Health will investigate the effectiveness and safety of using “scaffold-free” stem cells to repair injured cartilage, a procedure that, if proven effective, could help prevent ...
