Team uses stem cells to study earliest stages of amniotic sac formation
Phys.Org Previously, Gumucio’s group showed that embryonic stem cells have a strong tendency to form a hollow sphere, structurally similar to the precursor of amnion tissue. Gumucio and Fu teamed up to explore whether the initiating signal for embryonic stem … Stem cell ‘living bandage’ for knee injuries trialled in humansMedical Xpress |
