Robert Lea - Advanced Science News - Scientists have developed a new 3D cell culture device made from soft, porous microgel particles that can mimic the effects of pressure on stem cells. This platform allows researchers to study and even influence how stem cells...

By Stem Cells Translational Medicine - Our study demonstrates the advantage of using genetically immunodeficient rodents over traditional pharmacological methods in cell therapy research for spinal cord injury (SCI). This approach preserves the integrity and...

By Dan Heching -CNN - While a lot has been said about the friendship between Robin Williams and Christopher Reeve, the famed pair’s bond illustrates a very basic and instrumental type of kindness, according to Reeve’s daughter. In a recent interview with CNN,...

By Megan Liu - The Daily Pennsylvanian - A group of Penn scientists has developed a new method to remotely control engineered cells inside the human body using heat. Led by bioengineer Lukasz Bugaj, the innovation introduces a temperature-sensitive protein called...

By Science Direct - This study investigates the efficacy of a 3D-printed alginate composite scaffold enriched with calcium titanate nano powders and loaded with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for bone regeneration in a calvarial defect model. Scaffolds (20 mm × 20 mm ×...

by Gladstone Institutes - MedicalXpress - Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke. For survivors of the most common type of stroke, called an ischemic stroke, only about 5 percent fully recover. Most others suffer from long-term problems, including...

By Stem Cells Translational Medicine Given the high heterogeneity of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), it is imperative to develop personalized stem cell infusion regimen for targeted metabolic phenotype in order to ensure optimal therapeutic efficacy. In this study,...

By Technology Networks - Researchers at University of Galway have developed a way of bioprinting tissues that change shape as a result of cell-generated forces, in the same way that it happens in biological tissues during organ development. The breakthrough science...

by Linda Wang - UCLA Health - Scientists at the Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UCLA have received $21.8 million in grants from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, the state’s stem cell agency, to develop...

By Paul McClure - New Atlas - Researchers have discovered a new type of tissue, a soft and flexible ‘fatty cartilage’ that could revolutionize the treatment of traumatic injuries, birth defects, and cartilage-damaging diseases like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis...

by Gladstone Institutes - MedicalXpress - Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke. For survivors of the most common type of stroke, called an ischemic stroke, only about 5 percent fully recover. Most others suffer from long-term problems, including...

By Heo Ji-yoon - Chosun Biz - Korean patients gain access to innovative regenerative medical treatments after law changes. Next month, patients with severe, rare, and incurable diseases such as arthritis, autoimmune diseases, Parkinson's disease, and cancer will be...
