Researchers from the University of Colorado Cancer Center have solved a cellular mystery that may lead to better therapies for colorectal and other types of cancer. Peter Dempsey, PhD, professor of ...

For centuries, the inability to regrow lost body parts has been considered a defining limitation of humans and other mammals. While animals like salamanders can regenerate entire limbs, humans are ...

When inflammation damages the intestinal lining, differentiated enterocytes and crypt base columnar stem cells (CBCs) revert to a regenerative, fetal-like state and form revival stem cells (revSCs).

Scars are often the unwanted and permanent result of wound healing, but University of California, Irvine and University of Pennsylvania researchers have discovered a natural regeneration process that ...

Intermittent fasting has proven benefits for metabolic health, but a new study shows that it could slow hair growth—at least in mice. Researchers report December 13 in the Cell Press journal Cell that ...

Intermittent fasting has proven benefits for metabolic health, but a new study shows that it could slow hair growth in mice by inhibiting hair follicle regeneration. A research team headed by ...
