Programmable CRISPR tools are turning stem cell biology into something closer to software engineering, shrinking ...

A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of ...

Health and lifestyle expert Dr. Fabrizio “Dr. Fab” Mancini—known for more than 30 years of experience as a holistic health ...

A team led by researchers has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other ...

From microglia reprogramming to immune cell-based diagnostics, 2025 was a big year for breakthroughs in cell biology.

Researchers in Japan have developed a form of stem cell therapy that "reverses" paralysis. Though the treatment has only seen a 50% success rate so far, two of the four people who received it have ...

Diffuse midline glioma (DMG), H3K27-altered, is a lethal pediatric high-grade tumor, lacking effective treatment options, primarily depending on clinical trials. Epigenetic agent-based immunotherapy ...

Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have found a new approach to the "reprogramming" of ordinary adult cells into stem cells. In a study published today in an Advance Online paper in ...

Aside from reprogramming and transdifferentiation, the longer-existing approach to generating neurons and NSCs has been differentiating them from pluripotent cells, initially from embryonic stem cells ...
