It does NOT include accepted medical treatment practices using adult stem cells, human cord blood or transplantation of non-pluripotential stem cells. II. Types of research exempt from and subject to ...

In general, chemotherapy medications work by attacking cells or by preventing them from growing and dividing. Cancer cells tend to grow and divide rapidly and uncontrollably, and many chemotherapy ...

Circ. Res. 98(9), 1194-1202 (2006). Evans MJ, Kaufman MH: Establishment in culture of pluripotential cells from mouse embryos. Nature 292(5819), 154-156 (1981). Wagers AJ, Weissman IL: Plasticity ...

Stem cells are cells that have the capacity to self-renew by dividing and to develop into more mature, specialised cells. Stem cells can be unipotent, multipotent, pluripotent or totipotent ...

Bone-marrow-derived multipotent progenitor stromal cells — or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) — are the common predecessors of cells of the mesenchymal lineage, such as bone, cartilage and fat ...

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over three years since we heard anything official about the game. From what we ...

Eating foods high in key nutrients, including iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12, and limiting alcohol may help increase your red blood cell count. Red blood cells are the most common cells in ...

ABSTRACT: One serious lesion to the central nervous system is spinal cord injury (SCI). Due to its intricate pathophysiological mechanisms and the irreparability of nerve cells, conventional ...

Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) have great potential to revolutionize the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine as well as stem cell therapeutics. However, the end goal of using PSCs ...

Cancer metabolism is an essential aspect of tumorigenesis, as cancer cells have increased energy requirements in comparison to normal cells. Thus, an enhanced metabolism is needed in order to ...
