Working with mouse cells, the researchers developed a highly efficient conversion method that can produce more than 10 ...

MIT researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord ...

Converting one type of cell to another - for example, a skin cell to a neuron - can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a "pluripotent" stem cell, then ...

A single molecular switch is essential for blood stem cells to enter an activated, regenerative state in which they produce ...

Examples of mouse tumor models include cell-derived xenograft (CDX) and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. Researchers inoculate CDX models with human cancer cell lines or engraft PDX models with ...
