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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Supplementing the guts of older mice with poop from younger ones has revealed the key role microbes play in intestinal stem ...

A pioneering clinical trial is exploring whether lab-engineered stem cells can restore dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease.

FINDINGS: Devising a novel method to identify potential genetic regulators in planarian stem cells, Whitehead Institute scientists have determined which of those genes affect the two main functions of ...

Aging muscles heal more slowly after injury—a frustrating reality familiar to many older adults. A UCLA study conducted in ...

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...

Researchers have transplanted precursor stem cells into the damaged heart muscle of pigs, repairing injured cells and improving heart function. The study may lead to a treatment that can regenerate ...
