Single Cell Sequencing: Unwinding Embryonic Development One Cell at a Time
Source: INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR STEM CELL RESEARCH
At one point, we were all just one single cell: a fertilized zygote formed when a sperm and egg fused together. That one cell gave rise to all of the roughly 37 trillion specialized cells that make up each of our bodies today.
What is a Stem Cell?
Source: PENP
Every organ and tissue in our body grew out of a cluster of stem cells early in development. A stem cell differs from every other cell in the body in its ability to renew itself. It can divide into many more just like it.
Tiny rake to repair crumbly old knees by collecting stem cells from the joint
Source: Health Medicinet
A rake-like device that sweeps up cells could give new life to arthritic knees. It collects stem cells — which can form new tissue — from the joint lining, then brushes them into blood clots to help the knee heal itself.
Stories that Caught Our Eye: New ways to heal old bones; and keeping track of cells once they are inside you
Source: CIRM
As we get older things that used to heal quickly tend to take a little longer to get better. In some cases, a lot longer. Take bones for example. A fracture in someone who is in their 70’s often doesn’t heal as quickly, or completely, as in someone much younger. For years researchers have been working on ways to change that.
Stem cell researchers develop promising technique to generate new muscle cells in lab
Source: Science Daily
To help patients with muscle disorders, scientists have engineered a new stem cell line to study the conversion of stem cells into muscle.
Prospect of mesenchymal stem cells in therapy of osteoporosis: A review
Source: NCBI
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease associated with reduced bone strong point that results in raised fracture risk, with decreased bone strength, leading to reduced bone mineral density and poor bone quality. It is the most common in older females but some men are also at high risk. Although considered as a predictable result of aging, it is can be avoidable and treatable.
Maintaining the unlimited potential of stem cells
Source: Science Daily
Scientists have discovered a new protein complex that keeps the brakes on stem cells, allowing them to maintain their indefinite potential. The new complex, called GBAF, could provide a future target for regenerative medicine.
