Paper in Cloning and Stem Cells shows that animal eggs do not support specific reprogramming toward the normal human embryonic state. Investigators at Advanced Cell Technology (ACTC) have found that ...

In a breakthrough for longevity science, a reverse-aging treatment has been injected into a human. The technique is a sought-after solution for improving longevity by reprogramming cells. Competitors ...

Scientists have taken a small but significant step toward testing the idea of reverse aging in humans. Researchers have ...

The induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has transformed in vitro research and holds great promise to advance regenerative medicine. iPSCs have the capacity for an almost unlimited ...

Human cellular reprogramming to induced pluripotency is still an inefficient process, which has hindered studying the role of critical intermediate stages. Here we take advantage of high efficiency ...

Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) can differentiate into various tissues, an invaluable characteristic for personalized regenerative medicine, basic and translational research, and drug ...

In a groundbreaking study published in Nature, Australian scientists have resolved a long-standing problem in regenerative medicine. Led by Professor Ryan Lister from the Harry Perkins Institute of ...

Human skin cells have been reprogrammed into heart valve cells and then used to successfully transplant a pig heart valve into a rodent, led by the research of a Northeastern University professor. The ...

Scientists have produced stem cells from the endangered Grévy's zebra using human reprogramming factors. Further comprehensive gene analyses identified key genes that are also found in human and mouse ...
