Do similar mechanisms operate in plant and animal stem cells to maintain long-term division and pluripotency? In conclusion, at least some of the genes that control the stem cell state in animals ...

Researchers just discovered super stem cells capable of resetting themselves back to a stronger, younger version.

In a new study, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have successfully created stem cells that are better at ...

Explore how stem cells transform when switching energy sources, leading to enhanced abilities and potential in regenerative ...

They therefore support the plant. Dissolved sugars and amino acids can be transported both up and down the stem. Companion cells, adjacent to the sieve tubes provide energy required to transport ...

Understanding how cells differentiate during early embryonic development is crucial for advancing regenerative medicine and ...

One continuing challenge is the need to suppress transplant patients' immune systems to prevent their bodies from rejecting ...
