STAP Author Can’t Replicate Results
Although both papers describing stimulus-triggered acquisition of pluripotency (STAP) a simple procedure to reprogram stem cells have been retracted, there’s been some lingering hope that perhaps

The stem cell field was rocked earlier this year by investigations into researchers’ claims to have reprogrammed somatic cells into pluripotent progenitors without the aid
Europe’s highest court has ruled that human embryonic stem cells made from unfertilized eggs can be patented on the basis that they lack the capacity
You’d think doctors and patients would be clamoring for cells so versatile they could help reboot a body suffering from everything from leukemia to diabetes.
Eggs and sperm do it when they combine to make an embryo. John Gurdon did it in the 1960s, when he used intestinal cells from

Researchers from Mount Sinai Hospital’s Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute and their international colleagues have uncovered a new type of pluripotent mouse stem cell the “F-class” cell
A Japanese woman in her 70s is the world’s first recipient of cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells, a technology that has created great
Stem cells derived from the skin of an 86-year-old man show a surprising capacity to survive and form long axons at the site of a
There are two methods for reprogramming mature cells to pluripotent stem cells, which can give rise to all cells of the body. The first direct
About four years ago, Jay Tischfield, the director of RUDCR Infinite Biologics, a long-standing biorepository at Rutgers University, found himself sitting on a gold mine. RUDCR
In the process of converting a somatic cell to a stem cell, researchers have questioned whether the resulting cells retain characteristics of their prior, non-stem-cell
Researchers have taken another step toward creating a functional human retina in the laboratory. Previous studies showed that an early-stage retina, including photoreceptors with primary
Scientists have successfully grown functional skeletal muscle in the lab and, after implanting it into a mouse, have observed the tissue fix itself after an
A Japanese investigating committee concluded that image manipulation and the use of pictures from an old experiment constitute research misconduct in one of two papers reporting a new method of deriving
Current approaches for turning differentiated adult cells back into a stem–cell-like state involve messing with the nucleus in one way or another—either swapping out nuclear
In 2007, Japanese scientist Shinya Yamanaka reprogrammed adult skin cells into a stem-like state using a quartet of genes. These induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)
Liver cells derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and cultured with developmentally important progenitor cells self-organize into functional, three-dimensional liver buds, according to
High-grade gliomas are extremely difficult to treat because they are invasive and therefore not curable by surgical resection; the toxicity of current chemo- and radiation
In the seven years since their discovery, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have transformed basic research and won a Nobel prize. Now, a Japanese study
Researchers have coaxed induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from mice to become several different cell lines and transplanted those cells into genetically identical mice
Most children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) will never jump rope, play tag, or even walk because a genetic deletion will provoke the gradual destruction
