Scientists at the University of California, Riverside, have discovered how adult stem cells retain their regenerative power.
Researchers show that glycoRNAs, uncovered by the lab of Nobel Laureate, Carolyn Bertozzi, can be used to fight cancer.
In 2021, research led by Ryan Flynn, MD, PhD, and his mentor, Nobel laureate Carolyn Bertozzi, PhD, opened a new chapter in biology, characterizing a new kind of player on the cell surface: glycoRNAs.
Stem cells are often described as the body's master cells. Healthy stem cells can restore the blood system after cancer treatment.
Our laboratory aims at exploiting recent advances in stem cell biology to develop radically new therapies for degenerative disease and cancer. The main focus in the lab is on the biology and ...
