Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through different stages from a precursor type—the blood stem cell. An ...

Stem cells function as a source of new cells to grow or replace specialised tissues. To perform this function, these cells must divide to renew themselves, while some of their descendants ...

The Stem Cell Core provides access to a streamlined, IRB-approved consenting process for acquisition of patient samples and generation of pluripotent stem cells and stem cell-derivatives for basic and ...

A stem cell treatment helped improve the motor function of two out of four patients with a spinal cord injury in the first ...

Table 2: Arguments For and Against Federal Funding of Embryonic Stem Cell Research Adult stem cells lack the versatility of embryonic cells, making them less likely to lead to breakthrough medical ...

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 ...

Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through different stages from a precursor type -- the blood stem cell. An international research team has now investigated the developmental pathways ...
