02.03.2017According to biologist Andrew Carr and his colleagues, the design of the bioreactor should repeat the anatomy of the human body – those parts of it for which tissues are grown.
02.03.2017Cellular therapy of Parkinson's disease for the restoration of dopaminergic neurons is a promising alternative to methods of drug treatment.
01.03.2017Will stem cells help with Alzheimer's disease, the leading cause of dementia in an aging population and the sixth leading cause of death in developed countries?
28.02.2017Stem cells of various origins and iPSCs are used not only for modeling neurodegenerative diseases, but also in transplant therapy.
28.02.2017The progress that has occurred over the past decade in the field of stem cell applications for the diagnosis, modeling and therapy of neurodegenerative diseases.
27.02.2017The development of the disease was completely stopped in 73% of patients with recurrent multiple sclerosis and in 33% of patients with a progressive form of the disease.
22.02.2017Such diodes, which conduct an electrical signal in only one direction, can be used to monitor the operation of biosensors, create "organs-on-a-chip" and treat muscle disorders.
16.02.2017In some of the "mini-brains" grown at Brown University, a system of blood vessels has formed over time, which significantly expands the scope of their use.
14.02.2017Reprogramming allowed hepatocytes to perform the function of beta cells. Now scientists are working on adapting the technology to the human body and preparing for clinical trials.

25.01.2017Until now, it was not known whether the brain actually used transplanted neurons to form working connections. A new study has shown that yes.
25.01.2017How human organs are "grown" in the laboratory, whether they will be able to replace donor ones, when such technologies will become massively available and what mini-organs are needed for.
20.01.2017In addition to stem cells from the material left over from artificial insemination procedures, induced pluripotent stem cells were used in organoid cultivation.
