Every year, thousands of patients with kidney failure face the same stark reality: Dialysis keeps them alive, but their quality of life is significantly reduced. Dialysis cannot replace all the ...

Scientists at the UCLA Broad Stem Cell Research Center have received $4.9 million in grants from the California Institute for ...

The field of stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte regeneration and tissue engineering seeks to overcome the limited capacity of the adult mammalian heart to self-repair by harnessing the developmental ...

As we age, some of the cells in our body enter a state of senescence, in which they stop dividing but do not die. Those ...

Autoimmune diseases have long been framed as failures of immune tolerance, but a growing body of evidence suggests that the real story unfolds in the tissue itself. A new review published in ...

Every year, millions of lives are suddenly, swiftly transformed by a stroke, which occurs when a blood vessel traveling towards the brain becomes obstructed, causing neurons to die off. Strokes are ...

Many of the deadliest cancers do not emerge from healthy tissue. Liver and lung tumors typically arise in organs already scarred by years of chronic disease—hepatitis, cirrhosis, or long-standing l ...

Researchers from Sichuan University developed a mineralized DNA hydrogel scaffold that regulates immune responses while sustaining calcium-driven bone regeneration for improved healing of skeletal ...

Researchers have developed an injectable biomaterial that can harness the immune system and promote tissue repair in mice ...

Cells convert mechanical forces into signals that influence physiological processes, such as exercise strengthening bones. A research team at Washington University in St. Louis and Tsinghua University ...
