Adult stem cells self-renew and differentiate to build, maintain and repair tissues. This Review discusses recent insights into the contribution of mechanical forces produced by epithelial stem ...

This is especially problematic in cases of blocked blood vessels, which can repeatedly starve large areas of the heart of ...

Mesenchymal stem cells are adult stem cells found in several places ... people with MS. Neural stem cells are derived from other types of stem cells and can form cells in the central nervous ...

Discover how neural stem cells activate in the adult human brain, unlocking potential for regeneration, repair, and new ...

A University of Ottawa neuroscientist has led a Canadian research team to reveal important new insights into the activation ...

2024 — Stem cell transplantation is used to treat several types of blood cancers, but carries the risk of a life-threatening side effect called graft-versus-host disease. Results from a clinical ...

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 ...

Scientists have discovered that neural stem cells (NSCs) receive constant feedback from their daughter cells, influencing whether they remain dormant or activate to form new neurons and glia.

A type of aggressive, treatment-resistant brain tumor has a distinct population of immune cells that support its growth, according to new research.

This was particularly evident in blood stem cells, where between 15 to 20% of the mutations resulted from a specific type of DNA damage that persists for two to three years on average, and in some ...
