Promising mouse studies and billions of dollars in funding are stoking excitement. But we’ve been here before.

Cellular reprogramming is the hottest topic in longevity science, with tech titans like Sam Altman investing in it. It's now ...

During the reprogramming of somatic cells back into stem cells, gene regulation is controlled by pioneer transcription factors. These bind to the tightly packaged DNA in order to make it accessible.

A new study developed a mineralized DNA hydrogel that combines immune regulation with sustained bone regeneration. Using ...

For those hoping to cure death, and they are legion, a 2016 experiment at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego has become liminal — the moment that changed everything. The experiment ...

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the "recipe" for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...
