A recent study found that radiation treatment transforms cancer cells into treatment-resistant breast cancer stem cells, making the cancer worse.

For many of us, when we think of microbiomes, our first thoughts are probably about the beneficial microorganisms that live in our guts.

Dog owners may need to learn to appreciate their best friend's urine. Scientists at Osaka Metropolitan University have devised an efficient, non-invasive, and pain-free method to reprogram canine stem cells from urine samples, bringing furry companions one step closer to veterinary regenerative treatment.

Non-human primates (NHPs) have a high degree of similarity to humans compared to other animal models.

The secret could lie in specialized cells.

A microbial sensor that helps identify and fight bacterial infections also plays a key role in the development of blood stem cells, valuable new insight in the effort to create patient-derived blood stem cells that could eliminate the need for bone marrow transplants.

Heart rates are easier to monitor today than ever before. Thanks to smartwatches that can sense a pulse, all it takes is a quick flip of the wrist to check your heart.

Scientists have so far identified around 800 different neuromuscular diseases. These conditions are caused by problems in the way muscle cells, motor neurons and peripheral cells interact.

Researchers at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Emory University, have discovered dental pulp stem cells can stimulate growth and generation of several types of neural cells.

When did the breaches at Cordlife occur? When was the board informed and how did the issue come to light? CNA tracks the timeline of events.
