The dentist’s drill is a sound that sends shudders down the spines of many people, so it sure would be nice if teeth could just repair themselves. Thankfully that’s not as far-fetched as it sounds – researchers from the University of Plymouth… Continue reading Newly-discovered group of dental stem cells could patch up cavities
Our bodies do a decent enough job of repairing themselves, able to patch up wounds, fight off infections and even heal broken bones. But that only applies up to a certain point – lose a limb, for example, and it’s not coming back short of a p… Continue reading Stem cell map shows how immortal invertebrate regenerates itself
We owe our long lives to stem cells, which are nestled deep inside certain tissues in the body and constantly replace old cells. In recent years scientists have been able to correct genetic diseases by removing these stem cells, editing their… Continue reading Harvard breakthrough shows stem cells can be genetically edited in the body
It’s kind of like a ceramics wheel, but instead of pottery, you get a hydrogel tube of artificial tissue. Continue reading Watch Tiny Jets Spew Artificial Tissue Made from Living Cell
