Researchers have unveiled an intriguing phenomenon of cellular reprogramming in mature adult organs, shedding light on a novel mechanism of adaptive growth. The study, which was conducted on fruit ...

A team led by researchers has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other ...

At the recent International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) conference, Millipore hosted a panel session entitled “Cellular Reprogramming: What the Future Holds”. A number of stem cell experts ...

A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in men worldwide. However, the mechanisms controlling the early stages of prostate cancer ...

Cellular reprogramming, when the identity and function of a cell changes, results in the cell acquiring embryonic stem cell pluripotency. This process requires gene expression patterns changes, ...

Aging is the primary risk factor for numerous life-threatening diseases and has long been a central focus of biological research. Epigenetic reprogramming, a process that can modulate cell fate and ...
