A team of scientists has found that a type of cell derived from human stem cells and widely used for brain research and drug development may have been leading researchers astray for years. Here, Dr Raphaël Lis from Weill Cornell Medicine explains how forcing the activity of three known endothelial cell transcription…
To ensure that new drugs are effective and have as little toxicity as possible, they first need to be tested in model systems before entering clinical trials. In this Q&A, Dr Takanori Takebe outlines his research into liver organoids derived from stem cells that can be used to test new…
Included in this ebook are articles on stem cell-derived liver organoids and pluripotent cell-derived endothelial cells.
Dr Jo Brewer outlines research into allogeneic products by gene editing stem cells, which has the potential to build a broad family of multiple immune cell types, including T-cell therapies.
Scientists have developed an implant that releases insulin-secreting cells which has shown success at treating diabetes in mice.
Researchers have developed a vaccine using stem cells that protected mice injected with pancreatic cancer cells from developing tumours.
Researchers have shown that Chroman 1, Emricasan and trans-ISRIB, in combination with polyamines, are effective at protecting induced pluripotent stem cells from stress.
Researchers have developed a stem cell therapy that could treat the damage caused by dementia by launching a repair response.
An international collaboration has led to the development of monkey embryos able to grow with injected human stem cells.
A team has developed a lotus-root-shaped construct to deliver iPSC-derived pancreatic beta-cells to patients with type I diabetes mellitus.
Sequencing and transcriptome data on iPSCs has been used to identify correlations between genetic variants and expression patterns.
CRISPR-Cas9 and stem cell technologies have been used to create a cellular model of acute myeloid leukaemia, revealing therapeutic targets.
