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 ...

Nov. 18, 2024 — 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 ...

Summary: Scientists have reprogrammed mouse cells into pluripotent stem cells using a gene from choanoflagellates, single-celled organisms related to animals. This breakthrough demonstrates that key ...

There are two main types of stem cells: embryonic (or pluripotent) and nonembryonic (also known as adult stem cells). Adult stem cells can be altered to have the properties of embryonic stem cells ...

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