The discovery that the ageing of lung stem cells drives iron insufficiency and reduces the capacity of the cells to form tumours has potential implications for the treatment of cancer and for ...

The Lee laboratory studies the mechanisms governing homeostatic turnover and reparative programs in stem cells, with a focus on elucidating how tissue perturbations lead to lung disease. We ...

Grown in a dish from human stem cells, lung organoids are multicellular, three-dimensional structures that aim to recreate key features of human tissues such as cellular complexity and architecture.

Aging brings two opposing trends in cancer risk: first, the risk climbs in our 60s and 70s, as decades of genetic mutations ...

The rocker debuts the music video for "Transition" as he searches for a donor. "My donor will be my one in a million, my ...

The key to regenerative medicine is the discovery of so-called ‘stem cells’ These are cells with the potential to develop into any type of cell - from a heart, to a lung to a skin cell.

Stem-cell research is on the cusp of a breakthrough that could come as soon as 2025, and two biotech companies with promising ...

The study, published in the December 17 edition of Cell Reports Medicine, was led by Joseph Ciacci, M.D., a professor in the Department of Neurological Surgery at UC San Diego School of Medicine ...

Its development is tightly controlled by genetic and epigenetic programs. Stem cell-based embryo models, such as blastoids, serve as models of the blastocyst and are invaluable tools for studying ...
