Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent, depending on the number of cell types to which they can give rise. We show that multipotent neural stem cells (NSCs ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Researchers from Nanjing Medical University have developed a novel method to generate transient totipotent blastomere-like stem cells (tTBLCs) by treating mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) with a ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

A team of CiRA researchers has uncovered the crucial role of EIF3D—a protein translational regulator—in primed pluripotency.

Drug-Delivering Aptamers Target Leukemia Stem Cells for One-Two Knockout Punch Apr. 3, 2025 — Drug-carrying DNA aptamers can deliver a one-two punch to leukemia by precisely targeting the ...

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 ...

Apr. 7, 2025 — Scientists have discovered a new phylum of microbes in the Earth's Critical Zone, an area of deep soil that restores water quality. Ground water, which becomes drinking water ...
