Dec. 18, 2024 — Scientists have generated human stem cell models which contain notochord -- a tissue in the developing embryo that acts like a navigation system, directing cells where to build ...
Their collaboration has resulted in engineered cells called ‘synthetic organizers’ that deliver instructions to stem cells, telling them to grow into specific tissues and organs.
Building on the work of Dr. Shinya Yamanaka of Japan, who discovered that specialized cells could be reprogrammed back to immature stem cells, Watt and his collaborators have taken this work ...
By inhibiting the DNA polymerases, BKC enhances the endogenous RS in cancer cells, leading to increased DNA damage. IBC specifically inhibits CHK2 to prevent DNA repair. The combined use of BKC and ...
Muscle stem cells are adult stem cells, present in skeletal muscle tissue, which can self-renew and are capable of giving rise to skeletal muscle cells. These stem cells are activated in response ...
Investigators from Cedars-Sinai and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have identified a new way to deliver instructions that tell stem cells to grow into specific bodily ...
"This research takes an important step toward using a patient's own cells to repair their heart." Direct cardiac reprogramming, a process that bypasses the intermediate stem cell stage, allows ...
Dec. 17, 2024 — Researchers developed a fully open-source biomolecular structure prediction model that achieves state-of-the-art performance, at the level of AlpahFold3, in an effort to ...
