Most in a small group of patients receiving a stem cell-based infusion no longer needed insulin, but the drug may not suit those with more manageable type 1 diabetes.

An off-the-shelf stem cell therapy for type 1 diabetes continues to show positive results, according to a new study.

Zemcelpro provides an option for people with a hematologic malignancy who need a blood stem cell transplant but have no ...

For the first time, researchers in China have developed hearts containing human cells inside pig embryos.

A new study reveals the key lies not in the production of a regrowth molecule, but in that molecule's controlled destruction.

Chinese researchers are preparing the details for the publication of another scientific milestone, the creation of a chimera ...

BACKGROUND: Cardiac hypertrophy, as an important pathological change, contributes to heart failure. Recent studies indicate that the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) play ...

A rare disease brought together a Pasco County man and a 1-year-old boy from Orange County, California. Three years later, ...

For over a decade, scientists have been growing organoids - small clusters of cells that mimic a particular organ - to serve ...

Stanford scientists have solved a key conundrum in keeping organoids — lab-grown clusters of cells that resemble human organs — alive. These mini-brains and mini-hearts mimic human organs and enable ...

This leads to a reduction in cardiac function and can ultimately result in death. It turns out, however, that it's relatively easy to convert induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSC, with pluripotent ...
