For example, “induced pluripotent stem cells,” which can be made from normal skin cells, are splendid for use in cell modeling and drug testing. But Prentice’s primary focus is on adult stem ...

An international research team, led by scientists from Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center, has unveiled an ...

But the adult stem cells are more limited in the types of cell they can make. For example bone marrow stem cells only form different types of blood cells. Plants have stem cells too. They're found ...

Stem cell therapy has emerged as a groundbreaking treatment option for corneal injuries, offering hope to individuals suffering from severe damage to the cornea.

Activating stem cells via molecular programming, rather than relying on random cell transplants, significantly enhances the success of regenerative treatments.
