A protein called Wnt7a has been found to increase the number of stem cells in muscle tissue, leading to accelerated growth and repair of skeletal muscle. This has been found in a study research at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI) and the University of Ottawa. The finding shows that, by targeting stem cells to [...]

Stem Cells Creted From Pig Cells In China

Scince Daily had reported via EurekaAlert a research published in journal of molecular cell biology that scientists have managed to induce cells from pigs to transform into pluripotent stem cells. Pluripotent cells aare cells like embryonic stem cells, are capable of developing into any type of cell in the body. It is a breakthrough. It [...]

Stem Cell Therapy May Spell End Of Transplants

British scientists have developed a new technique that can rebuild a severely damaged heart, and one day, might replace the need for transplantation. Researchers at Imperial College London revealed that stem cell heart surgery can help repair damaged hearts using progenitor cells derived from patients’ own cardiac muscle. They have discovered a way to extract [...]
