Stem cell research is a good thing | Opinion – Chart

Posted: Published on October 10th, 2019

Stem cell research is becoming more of a taboo topic as many people of the United States move into a seemingly more anti-abortion stance. Stem cells come from a fetus that is between three to five days old (the clump of cells is called a blastocyst at this point) and can be used to reverse the effects of chemotherapy, and help repair damaged muscle. According to the Mayo Clinic, stem cell research and transplants can also replace neurons damaged by any spinal cord injustices, improve the symptoms of Alzheimers and Parkinsons, and produce insulin to help people with diabetes.

Drug candidate identified to starve and suffocate breast cancer stem cells – Health Europa

Posted: Published on October 10th, 2019

Breast Cancer is one the most common types of cancer in the UK. It is predicted that 1 in 7 women will be affected by the illness in their lifetime. Research at the University of Salford has uncovered important findings on how to effectively target mitochondria, which normally provide all the necessary energy for driving the proliferation and dissemination of cancer stem cells Continue reading

Yale researchers develop way to help brain organoids thrive – Yale News

Posted: Published on October 10th, 2019

Brain organoids created from human embryonic stem cells offer scientists a powerful way to study the developing brain in three dimensions. However, organoids need nutrients and oxygen carried in blood to thrive, just as a developing fetal brain does. Now Yale researchers have developed a method to induce growth of blood vessels in organoids and prevent the death of cells, which has hindered efforts of scientists studying brain development, they report Oct Continue reading

New Tools in the Works to Probe Adult Human Neurogenesis – The Scientist

Posted: Published on October 10th, 2019

In March 2018, researchers reported evidence suggesting that adult humans do not generate new neurons in the hippocampusthe brains epicenter of learning and memory. The result contradicted two decades of work that said human adults actually do grow new neurons there, and revealed a need for new and better tools to study neurogenesis, Salk Institute President Fred Gage, who generated foundational evidence for adult human neurogenesis, told The Scientist at the time. Continue reading
