Human embryonic development begins with a blastocyst that transitions into a disc-shaped epiblast. Cells in the posterior region of the epiblast differentiate into germ layers, which give rise to ...

Embryonic stem cells self-renew by dividing and can differentiate into any specialised cell of the body, but not extra-embryonic tissues such as the placenta. Latest Research and Reviews ...

Exposure to alcohol during the first weeks of embryonic development changes gene activity and cellular metabolism. In laboratory cultures, it was ...

During embryonic development, thousands of cells divide and move collectively to sculpt the main body axes. Understanding the mechanisms that coordinate this collective behavior remains a ...

Japan’s foray into regenerative medicine takes on added importance for a nation wrestling with age, stagnation, and its place in the world.

During embryonic development, thousands of cells divide and move as one. Understanding the mechanisms that coordinate this collective behavior remains a significant challenge in biology and the ...

Human development is a beautiful, complex process. Beginning from just two germ cells, the cells divide and double until an entire organism is developed in just under a year.

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing in blood stem cells, especially with AAV6 vectors, induces DNA damage responses and inflammatory pathways, leading to senescence-like states that impair long-term ...

Scripps’ lung medicine activates stem cells in the lower airways, known as type 2 alveolar epithelial (AEC2) cells, responsible for manufacturing crucial cells for exchanging stale oxygen for fresh.
