Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia was on an official visit from the Vatican to the UAE to sign an agreement with the Abu Dhabi Forum for Peace that focuses on artificial intelligence systems and aims to promote a culture of tolerance and ongoing dialogue that integrates technology, ethics, philosop
A team of researchers revealed that stem cells from the human stomach may be transformed into cells that produce insulin in response to rising blood sugar levels, presenting a promising strategy for treating diabetes
A potential strategy for treating diabetes uses stem cells from the human stomach to create cells that release insulin in response to rising blood sugar levels.
A pair of internationally known stem cell cloning researchers from the University of Houston have reported their discovery of mutant cells in the lungs of patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), which will most likely be crucial targets in any future treatment for the ailment.
Scientists found that the MGAT5 glycosylation enzyme plays a significant role in brain development. This finding may lead to new therapeutic applications for neural stem cells.
Organelles, which are made up of various protein and RNA fragments inside of a cell, are crucial for maintaining homeostasis, controlling ageing and development, and producing energy.
Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) have uncovered novel gene mutations responsible for a rare illness that causes heart failure in youngsters. They were subsequently able to discover how the mutation works and apply medication to counteract its effects in ca
Based on a recent study, specific stem cells can travel between growth compartments in hair follicles with a special aptitude, but as people age, they become trapped and lose the capacity to mature and preserve hair colour.
A new study claimed certain stem cells have a unique ability to move between growth compartments in hair follicles, but get stuck as people age and so lose their ability to mature and maintain hair colour.
New knowledge about mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations has been obtained through the use of a high-throughput single-cell, single-mitochondrial genome sequencing technique known as iMiGseq. This technology also provides a platform for evaluating mtDNA editing techniques and genetically diag
A cell's ability to multiply and divide is necessary for life, resulting in the evolution of complex creatures from a single cell. It also allows worn-out cells to be replaced by a small number of "stem" cells, which subsequently multiply and specialise. Yet, in cancer, cell growth is no lon
