Osteoarthritis is an extremely common condition – causing pain in joints during walking, standing, and other activities – that afflicts many, especially the elderly; researchers are working on...
A transcription factor has been identified to be the main factor responsible for the tendency of glioblastoma stem cells to form tumours. A group of researchers, guided by Professor Fang Zhiyou and...
The international BioRescue Consortium will save the northern white rhinoceros from extinction by using stem cell associated techniques. Scientists are on their way to producing gametes out of skin...
Fusing adult stem with special stem cells in the retina could be a potential therapeutic strategy to promote retina rescue and regeneration and treat retinal damage and visual impairment. According...
Researchers with the Department of Orthopaedics at the Union Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology seeded umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on a 'cryogel' biomaterial to treat...
New study has revealed that a point mutation of zebrafish slc20a1b gene can significantly reduce the proliferation of HSPCs, resulting in a severe defect of hematopoietic development. Hematopoietic...
Researchers from the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) developed a gelatine-based microcarrier used in bioreactor-based cell manufacturing, which increases production of...
Clinical Trial showing preliminary evidence of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy for COVID-19 pneumonia patients used biotechnology tools from Fluidigm Corporation. Innovative biotechnology tools...
First incorporated in 2018, CytoMed Therapeutics is a start-up spin-off from the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR). Its main focus is to leverage on their proprietary technologies...
ATH1-STM heterodimer binds the STM locus to maintain its expression of stem cells for plant branching. Branching allows plants to occupy space in 3D, an innovation considered essential for their...
Landmark finding of genetic marker Aquaporin-5 (AQP5) provided researchers a way to isolate human stomach stem cells and uncover insights to gastric cancer progression. Gastric cancer is the fifth...
A joint research team comprising scientists from City University of Hong Kong has recently developed a multipronged approach for concurrently rejuvenating both the muscle cells and vascular systems...
