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

Scientists at the National Cancer Institute and partnering institutions have discovered that Schmidtea polychroa, a flatworm ...

known as human-induced pluripotent stem cells, are typically adult skin or blood cells that have been reprogrammed in a lab to become like embryonic stem cells, which are found in early embryos.

2 The three main types of stem cells are embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells. 2 Embryonic stem cells are categorized as pluripotent stem cells, which means ...

In the first clinical study of its kind, researchers at Tokyo's Keio University have developed a stem cell treatment that they say allowed a paralyzed man to stand on his own again following a ...

are pluripotent stem cells generated from adult cells by reprogramming. iPSCs have the same properties as embryonic stem cells, and therefore self-renew and can differentiate into all cell types ...
