Researchers used CRISPR to remove the CD33 protein from donor stem cells, protecting healthy blood cells from therapies that target leukemia. In a 30-patient trial, the edited cells rebuilt blood ...

The IAEA has launched a new stem cell research project to improve healing for patients suffering from severe radiation skin injuries. For patients suffering from radiation damage to their skin, the ...

In many animal tissues, stem cells continually divide to create new cells that replace old or damaged ones. However, this ...

The stem cell-based embryo model (SCBEM) takes advantage of the flexibility of pluripotent stem cells (non-reproductive cells that can give rise to many different types of cells) to resemble that of ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

Sickle cell disease causes premature aging of blood stem cells, which scientists may be able to address with a special class ...

Renowned visionary English physician William Harvey wrote in 1651 about how our blood contains all the secrets of life. "And so I conclude that blood lives and is nourished of itself and in no way ...

Berkeley City College students visit UC Santa Cruz. On a YouTube livestream, Berkeley City College students carefully study the movements of stem cells to observe what they do as they become neurons: ...

New scientific methods could one day render animal studies—the standard in research laboratories for more than 100 years—obsolete. Clive Svendsen, Ph.D., executive director of the Board of Governors ...

The International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) will honor Dr. Dan Briggs at their Annual Awards Gala in NYC ...

Cancer, arthritis, and diabetes can develop when cells activate the wrong genes. Yet, those failures are remarkably rare.
