In a milestone in mammalian genetic engineering, a team of researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences succeeded in ...
This is especially problematic in cases of blocked blood vessels, which can repeatedly starve large areas of the heart of oxygen and nutrients, killing the cardiomyocytes there. This leads to a ...
Grafting patches of lab-grown muscle to the surface of the heart could offer a lifeline for people waiting for a transplant.
And they argue that scientists can achieve the same results using adult stem cells— immature cells found in bone marrow and other organs in adult human beings, as well as in umbilical cords ...
A mouse with no biological mother has survived to adulthood in China – a major scientific achievement that's been years in ...
After years of controversy, stem cells are on the cusp of cures for conditions like epilepsy and type 1 diabetes.
Researchers have successfully engineered bi-paternal mice, born from two male parents, that survived to adulthood using ...
Techniques that cause multipotent adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to differentiate into cells of the chondrogenic lineage have led to a variety of experimental strategies to investigate ...
By modifying 20 regions of the genome, scientists successfully bred mice with two male parents and raised them to maturity.
