Explore the vital role of bone marrow stem cells. Learn how they drive bone remodeling, immunity, and skeletal health in this complete guide.

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their behavior.

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Scientists discover how aging alters the function of cells, called mesenchymal drift, and manage to reverse this process.

Assessing the toxicity of food contaminants—including carcinogenic potential—is a major challenge in evaluating the risks ...

Many of the body's processes slow down or falter as we get older, including tissue regeneration. In a new study, researchers ...

Creating human eggs from adult cells just got one step closer to reality. A technique used in cloning combined with fertilization and a bit of chemical coaxing caused human skin cells to produce eggs ...
