The study, published in the journal Stem Cell Reports, sheds light on why many Covid-19 patients, even those not in hospital, are suffering from hypoxia -- a potentially dangerous condition in which there is decreased oxygenation in the bodys tissues. The study also...

Low Oxygen Level Impairs Immunity in COVID-19 Patients by Karishma Abhishek on  June 3, 2021 at 11:45 PM Ability of SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect the immature red blood cells might be the reason for the low oxygen levels in the blood followed by impaired immune response in COVID-19 patients, as per a new study published in the journal Stem Cell Reports by University of Alberta. This sheds light on why many COVID-19 patients, even those not in hospital, are suffering from hypoxi...

Date Time New study may help explain low oxygen levels in COVID-19 patients A new study published in the journal Stem Cell Reports by University of Alberta researchers is shedding light on why many COVID-19 patients, even those not in hospital, are suffering from hypoxia—a potentially dangerous condition in which there is decreased oxygenation in the body’s tissues. The study also shows why the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone has been an effective treatment for those with the virus. �...

Scientists, research organizations, and scientific journals have long relied upon the ISSCR Guidelines as the international standard for scientific and ethical rigor, oversight, and transparency in stem cell research.

Research society rules also herald new ways to study development

Removal of the 14-day limit for culturing human embryos is one of the main changes in the revised recommendations from the International Society for Stem Cell Research.

Teaching a Computer Program to Track Cells Gladstone researchers design a new artificial intelligence approach to simultaneously follow hundreds of cells in the lab as they divide, move, and interact News provided by Share this article Share this article SAN FRANCISCO, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the minuscule movements of every cell in a petri dish would be a painstaking task for any human. But teach a set of computer programs to do the job, and they can complete it quickly and eve...

 E-Mail New research by Joseph Wu, Edgar Engelman, and colleagues at Stanford University, US has advanced an old concept to develop a new strategy to train the immune system of mice to recognize cancer cells. This work is based on the recent understanding that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which are stem cells generated from skin or blood cells through a method called reprogramming, produce a large set of antigens that have overlap to a specific type of pancreatic cancer and that the...

New miniaturized model of neuromuscular junction formation provides insight into ALS Skeletal muscles enable voluntary movements and are controlled by a special type of neurons called motor neurons, which make direct contact with skeletal muscles through so-called neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). It is through NMJs that skeletal muscles receive signals making them contract or relax. In certain neurodegenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), NMJs are destroyed, leading to...
