For the first time, researchers have discovered and isolated adult stem cells from a non-human primate. This finding could ...

Rie Natsume and her collaborators have recently developed an innovative and cost-effective method for generating rats that ...

Chinese scientists have, for the first time, cultivated a beating heart structure with human cells in a pig embryo, reporting ...

Japanese researchers have generated lung cells directly from mouse tissue. These lung cells are called Alveolar Epithelial ...

The field of cellular immunotherapy has undergone a profound transformation in recent years, with autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies emerging as the standard-of-care option ...

The stem cell-based embryo model (SCBEM) takes advantage of the flexibility of pluripotent stem cells (non-reproductive cells that can give rise to many different types of cells) to resemble that ...

Blastocyst complementation is still far from clinical application in humans, but both studies suggest stem cells from different species can synchronize their development with the host’s brain.

Then, these blastocysts are injected with pluripotent stem cells. As a result, the entire organ of chimeric animals generates from the injected stem cells.

Stem cells are basic cells that can become almost any type of cell in the body. Human stem cells can come from an embryo or an adult human. They have many possible uses in science and medicine ...

A blastocyst has all the types of cells needed to make the foetus, and the placenta, which supports its growth. This article contains external content that failed to load.

The blastocyst is a key stage because it’s around this time that the embryo starts implanting in to the womb – the start of pregnancy. Over the days that follow, the embryo undergoes further ...
