A study led by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central nervous system. The findings suggest that neural stem cell-based therapies ...

Multipotent dental stem cells can give rise to various cell types and show potential for treating injuries, diabetes, and ...

From the moment an embryo starts to take shape, two-way communication is critical for making sure tissues and organs develop ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of ...

Hope is preparing for close-out meetings with the FDA. Chang said the team is “hopeful to advance to a phase 3 confirmatory trial” of the stem cell therapy candidate.

For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely ...

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs ...

A new study in the lab of Jason Stein, Ph.D., modeled brain development in a dish to identify cells and genes that influence ...

Using lab-grown brain tissue, researchers uncovered complex patterns of neural signaling that differ subtly between healthy ...
