Researchers developed a way to directly reprogram human glial cells into PV interneurons without passing through a stem‑cell stage.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain's support cells ...

Paper in Cloning and Stem Cells shows that animal eggs do not support specific reprogramming toward the normal human embryonic state. Investigators at Advanced Cell Technology (ACTC) have found that ...

UCLA stem cell scientists have reprogrammed human skin cells into cells with the same unlimited properties as embryonic stem cells without using embryos or eggs. Led by scientists Kathrin Plath and ...

Zhou’s study, "TBX20 improves contractility and mitochondrial function during direct human cardiac reprogramming," was recently published in Circulation. The most common cause of death worldwide is ...

Mammalian hearts have almost no ability to grow new heart muscle cells, called cardiomyocytes, after birth. Thus, dead tissue after an adult heart attack is not repaired with new cardiomyocytes. It is ...
