Personalized Medicine. 2009;6(3):293-313. Recently, the use of SCPs has been suggested as an alternative approach to using postnatal or adult SCs. [179] Grafted SCPs in the intact retina were ...

Could stem cells step in to replace lost neurons in Parkinson’s disease? In three Phase 1 clinical trials, scientists tested lab-grown dopaminergic cells in small cohorts to assess safety and look for ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece is part of a series dedicated to the eye and improvements in restoring vision. In 1999, I defined ...

Tiny structures inside your cells keep your body alive by turning food into fuel. These structures, called mitochondria, power every heartbeat, thought, and movement. When they fail, organs that need ...

A new stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease is one step closer to human trials after scientists were able to successfully rebuild neural damage in an animal model. Researchers from Scripps ...

Stem cell therapy offers a minimally invasive alternative to joint replacement surgery, with recovery times of just one to two weeks compared to months for major surgery Clinical studies show varying ...

Our livers contain many different types of immune cells. New research by the team of Prof. Charlotte Scott (VIB-UGent Center for Inflammation Research) and colleagues now reveals that a specific ...

DNA can be damaged by normal cellular processes as well as external factors such as UV radiation and chemicals. Such damage can lead to breaks in the DNA strand. If DNA damage is not properly repaired ...

New research from the Kind Group at the Hubrecht Institute sheds light on how cells repair damaged DNA. For the first time, the team has mapped the activity of repair proteins in individual human ...
