The capacity of intestinal stem cells to maintain cellular balance in the gut decreases upon aging. Researchers have discovered a new mechanism of action between the nutrient adaptation of intestinal ...

An international group of researchers has identified an important mechanism that enables stem cells to evade immune rejection. Their research, published in Nature, sheds light on how these specialized ...

Humans aren't capable of regenerating lost limbs, but our bodies can heal from many wounds. Whenever we scratch or cut our skin, for example, skin stem cells move in to regrow the epidermis and repair ...

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved stem cell therapy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, people could participate in clinical trials involving this ALS treatment.

The Dongsu Park Lab’s research focuses on the in vivo identity and pathophysiological function of stem/progenitor cells in bone regeneration and repair and to develop better treatment methods for ...
