The two - part approach netted a set of mutations seen only at relapse that enabled the team to sift and sort leukemic and
normal stem cells using tools developed in the Dick lab a few years ago to zero in on specific cell types fated to relapse.
By monitoring stem cell differentiation on gels that mimic the stiffness and nanofibrous structure of biological tissue, researchers have identified the specific molecules that
stem cells use when selecting bone and cartilage fates.
«Physical forces are certainly a factor in getting the lung lining to be fully functional,» says Anne Bishop at Imperial College London, who has made alveolar cells from
mouse stem cells using growth factors alone.
Just as
youthful stem cells use telomerase to offset telomere length loss, cancer cells employ telomerase to maintain their aberrant and destructive growth.
Although the
classical stem cells used in regenerative medicine are isolated from the pre-implanted embryo, they have adopted a mature stage that is most likely more similar to a post-implantation embryo.
The researchers took advantage of that by driving microparticles containing growth factor BMP4 or noggin — which inhibits BMP4 signaling — into layers of
stem cells using centrifugation.
This distribution helps to maintain the health and rapid proliferation rate of adult
epithelial stem cells using MimEX ™ Tissue Model Systems.
His recent published work describes the rescued visual function in animals using retinal pigment epithelial cells derived from human embryonic stem cells and a method for
deriving stem cells using a single - cell approach that does not harm embryos.
In addition, Dr. Kim's lab pioneered the development of safe, patient -
specific stem cells using a new technique — a highly promising breakthrough for treating and studying human diseases.
We isolated subpopulations of embryonic
stem cells using surface markers, then examined their expression of pluripotency genes and lineage specific transcription factors at the single cell level, and tested their ability to regenerate colonies of stem cells.
This award aims to bypass these problems and establish an efficient and safe way of reprogramming adult tissues into
stem cells using proteins.
Efficient generation of megakaryocytes from human induced
pluripotent stem cells using food and drug administration - approved pharmacological reagents.
Bruce Conklin, MD, and Nathaniel Huebsch, PhD, have invented a new way to create micro heart muscle
from stem cells using a unique dog bone dish.
But the factor that may make the discovery very significant is that umbilical cord blood can be saved, stored and multiplied without any of the ethical dilemmas facing
embryonic stem cell use, which are derived from human fetuses.
Ten years ago, one visionary scientist revolutionized biological research by discovering how to convert mature cells, such as skin cells,
into stem cells using four key genes.
Bruce Conklin, MD, and Mohammad Mandegar, PhD, manipulated the genome
of stem cells using a modified form of CRISPR.
As with platelet rich plasma therapy,
stem cell use for arthritis is a new therapy and while it has been shown to have good effect, it has not been compared to less invasive / expensive modes of therapy.
Dr. Gazit is focusing on how to develop targeted treatment of cancer cells using hematopoietic stem cells —
stem cells used in cancer treatment because of their ability to divide and form new and different kinds of blood cells.
The stem cells used to grow the mini stomachs are pluripotent, or plastic: given the right environment, they can mature into any type of cell.
«We concluded that
stem cells used in cardiac therapy should be drawn from healthy donors or be better genetically engineered for the patient.»
The stem cells used, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are thought to elicit a less vigorous immune reaction than blood stem cells, and MSCs can develop into bone, along with other connective tissues.
Human epidermal equivalents representing different types of skin could also be grown, depending on the source of
the stem cells used, and could thus be tailored to study a range of skin conditions and sensitivities in different populations.»
«
Stem cells used to model disease that causes abnormal bone growth.»
The stem cells used to treat Paizley, specific to the blood, came from the bone marrow of a healthy adult donor.
Researchers reported creating
the stem cells using skin cells from one 35 - year - old male and one 75 - year - old male online yesterday in Cell Stem Cell.
«Induced pluripotent
stem cells used to show statin effects on diseased bone.»
He adds that
the stem cells used in the study have advantages over reprogrammed skin cells, including eliminating the tricky business of inducing the cells to become muscle cells, but he notes that both types of cells could pose risks because the virus used to modify them could cause cancer.
The team's target was stem cells derived from human fat, or human adipose (hASC) cells and the process
these stem cells use to convert to bone cells when stimulated to do so.
Other responsibilities include general lab management duties, scheduling and planning assistance, budget monitoring and purchase orders approval, providing technical assistance to students and other laboratory personnel, obtaining approvals required for environmental safety, animal use, and
