Regenerative medicines are headed for people with Parkinson’s disease or severe heart failure — but researchers are concerned about minimal clinical-trial data.

Stem-cell–based therapies aim to change that paradigm by repairing or replacing damaged biological systems. If replicated successfully in larger patient populations, the approach could reduce ...

Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their ...

For the first time ever, an anti-aging drug is providing hope for millions who suffer from this common condition.

Scientists have uncovered a surprising way tumors turn the immune system to their advantage. Researchers at the University of Geneva found that neutrophils—normally frontline defenders against ...

Despite offering great hope for regenerative medicine, the international scientific community is expressing deep concern ...

A pioneering clinical trial is exploring whether lab-engineered stem cells can restore dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease.

An Indian review reveals how macrophages are reprogrammed inside breast tumours, helping cancer grow and spread while opening new treatment pathways.

A groundbreaking clinical trial is testing whether specially engineered stem cells can help the brain restore its own ...

After treatment, the mice’s memories were essentially shunted back into a younger state. The researchers found that reprogrammed engrams displayed molecular behavior of more youthful cells. Using a ...

Ordinary fat cells in obese animals can be induced to burn energy stores, generating substantial heat, according to a ...
