Researchers at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) and Imperial College London have shown for the first time that, before they can start developing into egg and sperm cells, the embryonic ...

In human cells, DNA carries chemical or "epigenetic" marks that decide how genes will be used in different tissues. Yet in a ...

Amsbio has expanded its Skeletal Muscle Differentiation Kits, enabling reproducible conversion of pluripotent stem cells into ...

Conditional genetics and single-embryo RNA-seq show that SETDB1 extinguishes the transient, retroelement-driven transcriptional programs of the totipotent two-cell state to facilitate the exit from ...

In our cells, our DNA carries chemical or 'epigenetic' marks that decide how genes will be used in different tissues. Yet in the group of specialised ...

A clinical trial is testing whether lab-grown stem cells can be implanted into the brain to restore dopamine production in ...

From bionic eyes to cell and gene therapies in clinical therapies, it's an exciting time for emerging technologies aiming to treat blindness and the visually impaired.

Twenty years after the death of Luca Coscioni, Italy still fails to guarantee an effective and fair system for the development, continuity, and access to orphan therapies: existing or ...

New research shows that physical pressure from brain tumors or injuries triggers a "self-destruction" program in neurons, leading to irreversible brain damage.
