A change to a single gene in the bacterium Yersinia pestis has enabled one of the world’s most notorious pathogens to survive ...

Here, we show that forcing a metabolic change in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) promotes a developmental identity that better approximates the inner cell mass (ICM) of the early mammalian blastocyst in ...

In the present study, we review approaches and studies that have shed some light on cardiomyocyte cell cycle regulation. For reference, an initial description of cardiomyogenic induction and ...

Kidney fibrosis, a common endpoint of chronic kidney disease (CKD), is strongly linked to aging, with cellular senescence ...

But what if Parkinson’s could be treated directly at its source by actually restoring the lost neurons? That is exactly what stem cell therapies aim to do. Stem cells have the potential to develop ...
