Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that gonadotrophs, cells in the pituitary gland with a key role in ...

“The thing that just wows me about this is that blood stem cells, when they form in the embryo, form in the wall of the main vessel called the aorta. And they basically pop out of this aorta and go ...

The investigators started with macaque embryonic stem cells, which they exposed to a number of growth factors in cell culture. These factors induced the stem cells to form embryo-like structures ...

This has an impact on the body's ability to form new blood cells throughout life." Migration of hematopoietic stem cells is dependent on embryonic macrophages But how do embryonic macrophages ...

In one small step for humankind, scientists have seen a fertilized mouse egg develop naturally and normally into early embryonic form. While a long way to go, it’s a positive sign that mammalian ...
