Reprogrammed stem cells grown inside living miceTelegraph.co.ukUntil now, these induced pluripotent stem cells have only ever been created in the laboratory after being removed from an animal and grown in a Petri dish. However, researchers at the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre in Madrid, Spain, were able … …read more &nbs… Continue reading
BloombergThe gene, called Usp16, may hinder the body’s ability to make stem cells needed to maintain tissues and organs, according to research published today in the journal Nature. That includes development of organs such as the brain while in the uterus, said …Stem cells: Down’s syndrome link to ageingNature.com all 4 news articles …read more &nbs… Continue reading
Stem cells: Reprogramming in situNature.comPluripotent stem cells sit atop the developmental hierarchy: they can self-renew indefinitely and form all tissues of the body. Embryonic stem (ES) cells, obtained from early mammalian embryos, are the quintessential pluripotent cell, but induced …Stem cell study raises hopes that organs could be regenerated inside patients …Telegraph.co.ukScientists grow new stem … Continue reading
Stem cells: Down’s syndrome link to ageingNature.comAgainst this confusing backdrop, Adorno et al. suggest an explanation for accelerated ageing in Down’s syndrome in terms of impaired function of somatic stem cells — tissue-resident cells that self-renew throughout life to repair damaged cells; the …Faulty stem cell regulation may contribute to cognitive deficits associated …Medical XpressGene … Continue reading
