Researchers at Kumamoto University have achieved a notable advancement in stem cell biology by reproducing the developmental process of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in vitro. This culture system ...

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

When injured, cells have well-regulated responses to promote healing. These include a long-studied self-destruction process that cleans up dead and damaged cells as well as a more recently identified ...

Stem cells are precursors of a variety of different cells: They can turn into anything from blood to bone to muscle. Human blood stem cells, known as hematopoietic stem cells, are the forerunners of ...

About 9% of men of reproductive age in the United States experience fertility problems. One of the many causes of male ...

In what he refers to as a "small step," an MU researcher has coaxed stem cells harvested from pig blood into becoming bone, blood vessel and neural cells. Elmer Price, a professor of biomedical ...

Application-specific high-throughput stem cell production processes revolutionize industrial new drug testing. For biotechnological and pharmaceutical companies, the development of cell culture ...
