Caltech researchers have developed a powerful new method for creating embryo-like structures from stem cells that could transform how we study fertility. Using stem cells rather than a traditional ...

An international team of experts in embryology and bioethics has published the first white paper on the use of embryonic models based on stem cells in the field of reproductive biology. The document, ...

For the first time, stem cells typically considered restricted to forming body tissues spontaneously formed a yolk-sac-like structure in a model of the human embryo. Stem cell models of human embryos ...

From the generation of embryo-like structures to the establishment of cell-based approaches to model or treat disease, the field of stem cell and developmental biology has impressively progressed ...

Xenophagocytosis is a natural immune process that limits interspecies organ generation by eliminating living donor cells, ...

For several years, researchers studied human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to understand the unique features of these pluripotent cells, but on their own, they poorly resembled the complex structures ...

Every embryo of an organism that reproduces sexually faces an early and consequential decision: which of its cell lineages ...

Stem cell-derived dopamine cell transplantation appears feasible and may reduce medication needs in PD, but longer follow-up is needed to establish its clinical benefit and long-term safety.
