To systematically characterize that process at the molecular level, we generated transcriptional profiles of zebrafish cardiac regeneration by microarray analyses. Mammalian hearts cannot regenerate. The mechanism of zebrafish heart regeneration is not understood. In contrast, zebrafish hearts re…

Adult stem cells reside in most mammalian tissues, but the extent to which they contribute to normal homeostasis and repair varies widely. by Thomas A. There is an overall decline in tissue regenerative potential with age, an…

With everything else that’s happening in the world today, debates about whether humanity should embrace as yet nonexistent technologies that could enhance our physical and intellectual abilities and someday prepare us “more than human” may seem frivolous. Nonetheless, a debate on “transhumanism” ha…

Replacement drugs like methadone are additionally used. The object is to somehow bring about abstinence from the various addictive substances called drugs.
Clinically, the word ‘addiction’ has been replaced by the word ‘dependency’ in relation to drugs.
It may be noted that not all persons…

Howard Hughes Medical Institute researchers have identified a protein that could aid development of methods to grow new skin to treat patients with burns or skin ulcers. The protein maintains hair follicle stem cells in their immature, undifferentiated state.

The findings additionally offer a ne…

I was reminded of precisely how that daylight, when I ran into a good friend’s fiancee outside the coffee shop. Incredibly, my friend has taken it really well, and they’re working through the issues that have caused so much pain for so many years. **********I love the promises, although when I was…

Understanding that has urgent implications for cancer research, the
Their findings, published in Nature Cell Biology, show for the first moment the mechanism that adult muscle stem cells use to protect their DNA from mutations. EuroStemCell scientists at the Pasteur Institute in Paris have demons…
