After years of debate, scientists provided new evidence for the lifelong birth of human brain cells, which may inform future ...

In the hippocampus, a critical brain region for learning and memory, new cells emerge in some people into late adulthood, ...

Scientists in Sweden led the study, published Thursday in Science. They found abundant signs of neural stem cells growing in ...

A study in the journal Science presents compelling new evidence that neurons in the brain's memory center, the hippocampus, ...

The Midwest has always been a region built on resilience. Whether you’re clocking in for a 10-hour shift at the plant, chasing toddlers around the backyard, or running your usual route along the ...

As of 2020, she found, menstrual stem cell research accounted for only 0.25 percent of all mesenchymal cell research, while bone marrow stem cells represented 47.7 percent.

For example, an adult stem cell in the skin would make more skin cells. Researchers are studying the ability of adult stem cells to create various types of cells.

Stem cells are basic cells that can become almost any type of cell in the body. Human stem cells can come from an embryo or an adult human. They have many possible uses in science and medicine ...

For example, mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow naturally migrate toward and stick to tumors, and can be used to deliver cancer drugs directly to cancer cells.
