How are induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells different from embryonic stem (ES) cells? What can we use iPS cells for? ES cells were originally derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) or epiblast of ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord, overturning decades of neuroscience dogma.

To test whether the neurons were functional, the researchers injected them into the brains of rats treated with a neurotoxin ...

The treatment only has a 50% success rate so far, but those who have received it have reportedly experienced no significant side effects.

Researchers at Keio University have begun using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) to treat and maybe even cure severe ...

Study confirms that somatic cell nuclear transfer, an alternate method of creating patient-specific pluripotent stem cells, can be used to reprogram adult cells. Mice have been cloned from single ...

Stem cells derived from adult somatic cells “will carry the mutational history of their past, as well as of any new mutations that occur when you are reprogramming them or growing them in culture,” ...
