Nov. 4, 2024 — Stem cells grown in microgravity aboard the International Space Station (ISS) have unique qualities that could one day help accelerate new biotherapies and heal complex disease ...

Pluripotent stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into the three primary germ cell layers of the early embryo and therefore into all cells of the ...

Stem cells are specialized cells that have the potential to develop into not one but many different types of cell. They are unlike any other cell for three specific reasons: They are unspecialized, ...

In addition to initiating a neurogenic inflammatory response in the early stages of healing, neuropeptides also control wound healing by influencing immune cells, repair cells, and the growth factor ...

We report a fully induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived human model of peripheral myelination using Schwann cells (SCs) and motoneurons, cultured in a serum-free medium on patterned and ...

Figure 1. NA accelerate the repair of nerve injury by promoting schwann cells proliferation and nerve growth factor secretion, and stimulate new blood vessels formation by up-regulating the ...

But far less is known about how cells and molecules stand up to the squeezing, crushing weight of thousands of feet of seawater. “The animals that live down in the deep sea are not ones that ...

What is sickle cell disease? Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood disorder. That means it is passed down from a parent’s genes. It causes the body to make abnormal hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is ...

With major funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Feltri made numerous seminal discoveries in her field, including the creation of the first mutagenesis tool for studying Schwann cell ...
