Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron ...

Explore scalable strategies for iPSC-derived islet differentiation using GMP-grade activin A and KGF to advance diabetes ...

Metabolic diseases such as obesity, fatty liver, and insulin resistance are rapidly increasing worldwide, but fundamental ...

A research team has developed a way to produce a subset of highly specialised brain neurons that centrally degenerate in motor neuron disease and are damaged in spinal cord injury, laying foundations ...

New evidence shows that precursors of myelin-producing cells — one of the few #brain cell types that continue to be produced ...

T cell development is a tightly regulated process that transforms immature thymocytes into mature T cells with distinct functionalities. In the thymus, precursor cells undergo a series of selection ...

With the advent of oral obesity treatments as an alternative to injections, interest in obesity therapy is intensifying in ...

A team at Johns Hopkins Medicine has focused their work on myelin development using oligodendrocytes to help study conditions like MS.

The research, in Nature, showed that deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) is required for both the differentiation and long-term survival of macrophages across multiple organs, including the lung, liver, ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells - one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...
