An experimental nasal spray improved memory and reduced brain inflammation in aged mice by delivering microscopic packets ...

Brain stem cells cortical development works differently than scientists believed for 60 years: two parallel, fate-committed lineages build the cerebral cortex simultaneously from the first neurons -- ...

Professor Ralf Jauch (centre), the School of Biomedical Sciences, HKUMed, and his research team have developed an innovative method to transform blood and skin cells into neural stem cells, overcoming ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international study, led by Hans Schöler of the Max Planck Institute for Molecular ...

Just a few weeks after conception, stem cells are already orchestrating the future structure of the human brain. A new Yale-led study shows that, early in development, molecular "traffic cops" known ...

Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) have identified an innovation in stem cell therapy to regenerate neural cells in the brain after cardiac arrest in an animal model.

Researchers created a 3D human brain tissue model using stem cells to model Alzheimer's plaque clearance and enable automated ...

The discovery of a new type of stem cell in the brain could usher in better treatments for the deadliest brain tumor. UCSF scientists have discovered a stem cell in the young brain that's capable of ...

Treatment with stem cells is safe and shows signs of slowing brain atrophy in people with progressive MS, per long-term early study data.

Like the seeds of a forest, a few cells in embryos eventually sprout into an ecosystem of brain cells. Neurons get the most recognition for their computing power. But a host of other cells provides ...

Neurons from grafted stem cells contain intrinsic codes for navigating and forming connections, which may improve cell therapy for a brain short-circuited by stroke. Some parts of our bodies bounce ...

India launched new organ donation reforms, digital tools and awareness drives to boost deceased donations. Despite record ...
