Scientists say they have very strong evidence that the adult human brain is capable of making new neurons, a point of ongoing ...

Scientists have found evidence of new brain cells sprouting in adults - a process that many thought only occurred in children ...

Scientists in Sweden led the study, published Thursday in Science. They found abundant signs of neural stem cells growing in ...

The team suspects that neurogenesis happens in other parts of the adult brain, too. In mice, new neurons are regularly made ...

Adult stem cells are a promising market Amid controversies over embryonic stem cell research, drugs using adult cells are already bearing fruit.

Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells found throughout the body that divide to replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissues. Also known as somatic stem cells, they can be found in ...

Adult stem cells, and not embryonic stem cells, are what all scientists in this field of research should be working on, says Dr. Peter Hollands. A renowned clinical scientist and researcher at the ...

A new method of adult stem cell growth has demonstrated its efficacy for its capacity to grow cornea stem cells. The scientists demonstrated applying the growth technique in treating diseases of ...

A few months ago, Dr. Thomas Einhorn was treating a patient with a broken ankle that wouldn't heal, even with multiple surgeries. So he sought help from the man's own body.

Evidence of such an adult somatic stem cell has been provided recently by Jiang et al., 73 who isolated multipotent adult progenitor cells from bone marrow–derived cultured cells; the progenitor ...

Cell therapy, involving adult stem cells from bone marrow, has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke in severe heart failure patients, according to a new study.

Those are stem cells typically taken from bone marrow and blood not embryos. But it's an example of many innovative therapies doctors are studying with adult stem cells.
