A first-in-human trial shows the feasibility and safety of delivering placenta-derived stem cells during prenatal ...

Senescence. It’s a beautiful-sounding word whose tones suggest it should be a perfume or an essential oil. But that’s not even close. Senescence is the loss of a cell’s power to divide and grow, thus ...

Four patented Tissue Orb bioreactors within spaceflight hardware. This configuration will be launched into space and installed into the International Space Station during the first flight experiment ...

Microgravity offers a unique condition for tissue engineering, advancing stem cell-derived liver tissue development. But how can we transport these tissues to Earth without damaging them? Researchers ...

The discovery of a gene essential to early embryonic development sheds light on the preliminary stages of human placenta formation. A team led by scientists from the University of California San Diego ...

Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from engineering, biology, and materials science to develop biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue ...

Researchers at the University of Connecticut have reported a novel bovine embryonic stem cell line with improved pluripotency and broader translational potential. The platform has opened routes ...

A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...
