Researchers used single-nucleus RNA sequencing and chromatin accessibility profiling to map human hippocampal neurogenesis across adulthood, aging, and Alzheimer’s disease. They found that chromatin ...
Scientists at the University of Southern California have succeeded in creating artificial “progenitor” nephron cells to form ...
“During development and tissue regeneration, stem and progenitor cells give rise to differentiated cell types in defined numbers and proportions to properly generate and maintain organs and body plans ...
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability, affecting 1 in 4 people during their lifetime. Stroke happens when blood vessels in the brain get clogged or damaged, impairing blood flow and oxygen ...
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have identified a novel trigger of a deadly form of ovarian cancer. Discovery of a subset of high-risk progenitor cells that reside in fallopian tube ...
For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely ...
Whether or not we grow new brain cells as adults has been the subject of an ongoing and often contentious debate. Now, evidence suggests that we can. This could help answer one of neuroscience’s most ...
In a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers have identified the neurogenic ...
