Stem-cell differentiation is the process by which a more specialised cell is formed from a stem cell, leading to loss of some of the stem cell's developmental potential. Stem-cell differentiation ...

These are found in an early embryo. These cells are able to divide continuously. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent. This means that all of the genes in an embryonic stem cell can be expressed ...

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) could be a key factor driving the development of insulin-producing cells, according to in vitro data published in the journal Pancreas. The use of islet-cell ...

“The idea that you could use electrical fields and 3D mechanical properties to impact stem cells without having to use different kinds of biomolecules or expensive growth factors to drive ...

Figure 1 — A lineage tree showing the expression pattern of pha-4 at single-cell resolution ... We would also like to generalize the technologies to other experimental systems, such as Drosophila, ...

More than half of the human genome is made up of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable elements, which are pervasive across the tree of life.
