The emergence of multicellular life roughly 700 million years ago was a pivotal event that shaped the evolution of life on ...

We all start our lives as symmetric balls of cells. In humans, during the first few weeks after fertilization, embryonic ...

Scientists at Queen Mary University of London and the University of Hong Kong have created a mouse with substituted genes ...

An international team of researchers has achieved an unprecedented milestone: the creation of mouse stem cells capable of generating a fully developed mouse using genetic tools from a unicellular ...

Compared to mouse embryonic stem cells, human ones were also more prone to shape abnormalities in differentiated nerve cells, such as the length and number of dendrites. Therefore, Sone’s team ...

The result is a hormone-rich carpet of mouse cells upon which a few human embryonic stem cells are finally placed. There they live like pampered pashas. If their scientist-servants don't feed them ...

Scientists at the Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UCLA have uncovered an ...

In an experiment that sounds like science fiction, Dr Alex de Mendoza of Queen Mary University of London collaborated with researchers from The University of Hong Kong to use a gene found in ...

This unexpected discovery prompted Butler’s team to explore further. In gain-of-function experiments with chicken and mouse ...

Interaction between subventricular zone microglia and neural stem cells impacts the neurogenic response in a mouse model of cortical ischemic stroke. Nature Communications , 2024; 15 (1) DOI: 10. ...

To this end, they developed a novel embryo-like model system consisting of a layer of epiblast and a layer of VE cells—a cup without a lid. They achieved this with the targeted and controlled ...
