Researchers of the University of Barcelona and the August Pi y Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) have shown that ...

Stem-cell differentiation is the process by which a more specialised cell is formed from a stem cell, leading to loss of some of the stem cell's developmental potential. Stem-cell differentiation ...

Discovering genes and microRNAs involved in human lung development unveils IGFBP3/miR-34a dynamics and their relevance for alveolar differentiation, Stem Cell Research & Therapy (2024).

During development, stem and progenitor cells gradually commit to differentiation pathways. Cell fate decisions are regulated by differentiation factors, which activate transcription programmes ...

These are found in a mature organism. Their function is to replenish all of the types of (differentiated) cells found in that specific tissue. Tissue stem cells are multipotent. This means that ...

We investigate how stem cells perceive environmental changes and determine their cell fate, and how niches form and remodel the local environment during lung development, regeneration and disease ...

stem cell differentiation, epigenetics, stem cell genomics and systems biology, genome reprogramming, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, stem-cell-based disease models, nuclear transfer ...

When cells express specific genes that characterise a certain type of cell we say that a cell has become differentiated ... unspecialised cells are called stem cells.

"The goal of almost all space flight in which stem cells are studied is to enhance growth of large amounts of safe and high-quality clinical-grade stem cells with minimal cell differentiation ...
