Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are considered a promising tool in medicine, with the potential to unlock ...

We're all very complex organisms, made up of lots of different types of cells carrying out different jobs in our bodies; such as nerve cells, blood cells, fat cells and muscle cells. So, where do ...

Prentice — a stem-cell researcher and my good friend — took a sabbatical from his Indiana State University professorship to tout the great potential of adult stem cells (and to oppose human ...

In 2006, researchers introduced a method to reprogram adult cells into a pluripotent state. These induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) could then be coaxed to differentiate into different cell ...

Techniques that cause multipotent adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to differentiate into cells of the chondrogenic lineage have led to a variety of experimental strategies to investigate ...

skeletal muscle stem cells and gene therapy; growth factors and signal transduction; mouse molecular genetics; muscular dystrophies and neuromuscular diseases. Skeletal muscle maintenance and ...

Table 1 Full-term development of reconstructed oocytes Our results demonstrate that cloning using adult somatic cells is not restricted to female or reproductive cells. Thus, it should be possible ...
