"These cells co-develop together, just like they would in an actual embryo, and establish that history of being neighbors," ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

A growing body of work suggests that cell metabolism — the chemical reactions that provide energy and building materials — ...

Using CRISPR-based engineering methods to prompt stem cells to organize into embryo-like structures, scientists were able to create 'programmable' cellular models of embryos without ever experimenting ...

“Reduced telomere length can be caused by embryonic cellular damage,” said study co-lead Dr. Yasmyn Winstanley. The ...

The researchers observed that light activated the enzyme, causing predictable cell movements. For example, specific light ...

UCSC scientists have used CRISPR to develop programmable embryoids that can be used to study early embryo development and ...

Life takes shape with the motion of a single cell. In response to signals from certain proteins and enzymes, a cell can start ...

Scientists at UCSC used CRISPR technology to create embryo-like structures, or embryoids, from stem cells. These programmable models mimic early developmental stages and allow scientists to study gene ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Research has shown that a potential new targeted therapy for childhood brain cancer is effective in infiltrating and killing tumor cells in ... Feb. 4, 2025 — Researchers have ...

In a study of early embryonic development in primates, an international research team under the leadership of Berthold ...
