Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitors that hold considerable promise for regenerative medicine, particularly in the reconstruction and repair of bone. Their inherent capacity to ...

Researchers uncover how SMAD7 directly activates Wnt signaling to promote dental pulp stem cell regeneration CHINA, ...

Scientists usually study the molecular machinery that controls gene expression from the perspective of a linear, two-dimensional genome—even though DNA and its bound proteins function in three ...

The mechanism for muscle stem cells repair could inspire therapeutics for muscle loss caused by injury, aging and weight-loss medications.

How do stem cells know what to become? Nearly three decades after scientists isolated the first human embryonic stem cells, researchers are still working hard to understand precisely how a single, ...

A comprehensive map of aberrant hematopoiesis in people with acute myeloid leukemia defines specific cell states and potential therapeutic targets. The team used their reference map for normal ...

The Notch signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in determining cell fate, especially in the development and function of T cells. But mimicking this highly mechanical, contact-dependent pathway in the ...

As 2025 comes to a close, the editors at The Scientist asked researchers to reflect on the biggest breakthroughs in cell biology this year. They named advances in everything from embryo models for ...

Dedifferentiated liposarcoma lacks effective IGF-1→PPAR-γ adipogenic signaling due to epigenetic silencing of PPAR-γ2, with ...

Cell biology is a branch of biological sciences that investigates the structure, function, dynamics, and regulation of cells as the fundamental units of life. It encompasses the study of cellular ...

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) proudly announces Kyle M. Loh, Stanford University School of Medicine, as the recipient of the 2026 ISSCR Early Career Impact Award, ...
