Japanese researchers forced pluripotent stem cells to form rudimentary liver tissue in vitro.
26.06.2012Japanese researchers forced pluripotent stem cells to form rudimentary liver tissue in vitro.
26.06.2012The difference between the Krasnodar operation and the Moscow one is that the frame of the trachea and part of the larynx was not taken from a donor, but prepared artificially. It is planned to carry out a series of such transplants within the framework of the megagrant.
25.06.2012The first tracheal and laryngeal transplant operation in Russia was successfully performed at the Krasnodar Regional Clinical Hospital under the guidance of Paolo Macchiarini, Professor of Regenerative Surgery at the Karolinska Institute.
22.06.2012The graft vein was allogeneic, i.e. donor, but with the help of bioengineering, the patient's own stem cells were planted to it.
22.06.2012More and more methods of using stem cells for the treatment of various diseases, including hereditary and age-related, are approaching clinical practice.
19.06.2012The work of Japanese scientists gives hope for the development of new methods of treating not only corneal endothelial dysfunction – the main cause of severe visual impairment, but also a number of other pathologies.
18.06.2012A stroke treatment method using a stem cell line isolated from the brain of a 12-week-old fetus has shown promising results in a small-scale clinical trial.

15.06.2012Human diseases can be considered as the total result of genetic, external and epigenetic factors, which should be taken into account when modeling diseases in vitro using reprogrammed cells.
15.06.2012Researchers have already begun work on creating experimental models by reprogramming the cells of patients with a wide range of diseases.
15.06.2012The researchers hope that the differentiation of a patient's own iPSCs into cells responsible for the development of a particular disease will become a powerful new tool for theoretical biomedicine and clinical practice.
15.06.2012Cell therapy shows great promise in the treatment of neurological diseases, but today such methods of treatment can only be resorted to within the framework of clinical studies.

13.06.2012The organ grown in the mouse body is small – only 5 millimeters, but its composition and functions are no different from the human liver.
08.06.2012Researchers from the University of Washington have managed not only to grow full-fledged "living" vessels in the laboratory, but also to control their growth and form complex structures from them.
07.06.2012The good news for diabetics is that instead of piercing your finger once a day, you can evaluate the glucose concentration by changing the color of your contact lenses at least every hour.
28.05.2012The reason for the loss of active stem cells in the aging process is changes in their microenvironment. This discovery can increase the effectiveness of regenerative medicine and the treatment of age-related diseases.
28.05.2012With the help of transplanting immature embryonic cells to laboratory mice, scientists managed to normalize the work of neurons that are responsible for suppressing chronic (neuropathic) pain.
