From totipotent stem cells at conception, to pluripotent, multipotent, oligopotent, and unipotent stem cells by adulthood – every disease essentially boils down to a dysfunction in the cells and ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

A team of CiRA researchers has uncovered the crucial role of EIF3D—a protein translational regulator—in primed pluripotency.

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord, overturning decades of neuroscience dogma.

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed ...

Drug-carrying DNA aptamers can deliver a one-two punch to leukemia by precisely targeting the elusive cancer stem cells that seed cancer relapses, researchers report. The aptamers -- short ...

A research team has identified the impact of stem cell infusion timing on the incidence and severity of acute ...

Researchers have performed the first known transplant of sperm-producing stem cells in hopes of restoring fertility in a man ...

Drug-Delivering Aptamers Target Leukemia Stem Cells for One-Two Knockout Punch Apr. 3, 2025 — Drug-carrying DNA aptamers can deliver a one-two punch to leukemia by precisely targeting the ...

Drug-carrying DNA aptamers can deliver a one-two punch to leukemia by precisely targeting the elusive cancer stem cells that seed cancer relapses, researchers at the University of Illinois ...

Stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into more mature, specialised cells. Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent ...
