The human body possesses remarkable abilities to heal, regenerate and protect itself when given the right nutritional support. Certain foods contain unique compounds that can simultaneously support ...

The capacity of intestinal stem cells to maintain cellular balance in the gut decreases upon aging. Researchers have discovered a new mechanism of action between the nutrient adaptation of intestinal ...

MIT biologists have answered an important biological question: Why do cells control their size? Cells of the same type are strikingly uniform in size, while cell size differs between different cell ...

A new study suggests that enlargement of stem cells contributes to age-related decline in function. The researchers found that blood stem cells, which are among the smallest cells in the body, lose ...

A new study, led by the University of Vienna and the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, shows how the eyes of adult ...

Ordinary cells have the ability to replace lost organs in plants—a function previously thought to be limited to stem cells—researchers at New York University's Center for Genomics and Systems Biology ...

"We proved for the first time that we can affect outcomes in moderately to severely disabled patients with TBI using stem cells," study investigator Peter McAllister, MD, co-founder and medical ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered how to reverse aging in blood-forming stem cells in mice by correcting defects in the stem cell's lysosomes. The breakthrough ...

whether human stem cells (i.e. special types of cells that can renew themselves and develop into many different cell types in the body) are beneficial in reducing death in people with decompensated ...

DALLAS, April 22 – Injecting a person's own stem cells directly into heart muscle appears safe and useful in treating end-stage heart failure, according to a rapid track report today from Circulation: ...
