Researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have discovered a unique genetic mechanism that provides cells with rapid and efficient protection against viruses. The findings could lead ...

are pluripotent stem cells generated from adult cells by reprogramming. iPSCs have the same properties as embryonic stem cells, and therefore self-renew and can differentiate into all cell types ...

A research group from Nagoya City University has elucidated the significance of birth in the maintenance of neural stem cells ...

Jan. 15, 2025 — While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows.

A research group led by Kazunobu Sawamoto, a professor at Nagoya City University and National Institute for Physiological Sciences, and Koya Kawase, a ...

DIABETES, Parkinson's disease, degenerative disc disease, macular degeneration, stroke — what do these have in common?

Teams across the world are learning about the pregnancy process to solve a number of medical challenges, from premature birth ...

This important study reveals a role for IκBα in the regulation of embryonic stem cell pluripotency. The solid data in mouse embryonic stem cells include separation of function mutations in IκBα to ...

However, these alone cannot explain collective cell migration, and a large body of evidence suggested that movement may also happen in response to embryonic electric fields. How, and where these ...
