One of the most enduring goals in regenerative medicine is deceptively simple: replace a person's damaged or dying cells with ...

Researchers have developed a vascularized organoid model of hormone secreting cells in the pancreas. The advance promises to improve diabetes research and cell-based therapies. Researchers led by ...

Over the last 15 years, I have witnessed how cell and gene therapy (CGT) has evolved in many ways, spanning from research and development to manufacturing. Breakthroughs such as CAR-T and gene therapy ...

The company is making a foray into scientific discovery with an AI built to help manufacture stem cells. When you think of AI’s contributions to science, you probably think of AlphaFold, the Google ...

The development of humans and other animals unfolds gradually over time, with cells taking on specific roles and functions ...

Creating human structures in a lab is always difficult, but when successful, it can open up a lot of possibilities. Recently, researchers have been working on using 3D embryo structures called ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four ...

Every cell in a body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different ...

CAR T cell therapy is one of the most promising new cancer treatments to emerge in recent years. CAR T cells are engineered cancer immunotherapies that boost or hijack a person’s immune system to ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

The body has an intricate system to defend against infections where each type of immune cell plays a distinct role. Now, a study led by researchers from the Penn State College of Medicine has ...
