A venture firm in Japan says it has applied to the health ministry for approval to produce and sell sheets of heart muscle ...

Here, the authors establish an EV-A71 infected skin organoid model to study the virus infection pathogenesis and drug screening. The authors identify an autophagy-associated protein as drug target ...

Researchers at Keio University have begun using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) to treat and maybe even cure severe ...

Embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells are pluripotent stem cells. Endochondral ossification is hard to recapitulate with human cells. Here, the authors generated SOX9 ...

In recent years, stem cells and epidermal growth factors have become key ingredients in skincare formulations. Some brands ...

Stem cells let scientists create patient-specific brain cells, unlocking new insights into schizophrenia. This could lead to ...

Organoids are small-scale models that mimic human organs. These models could help scientists understand diseases and test treatments, and potentially ...

How cardiac cell fates are specified during heart development remains elusive. This study identifies a level-dependent role ...

Scientists at Japan's Keio University have pioneered a stem cell therapy that enables paralyzed individuals to regain motor function. This groundbreak ...

New methods for deriving macrophages from induced pluripotent stem cells are easier to scale and provide more clinically ...

Keio University doctors said they have taken a promising step toward using human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to ...

Oct. 10, 2023 — Generating specific cell lineages from induced pluripotent stem cells and embryonic stem cells is the holy grail of regenerative medicine. Guiding iPSCs toward a target cell line ...
