A team led by researchers has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other ...
Aging doesn’t have to mean losing your past. Scientists have found a way to "reprogram" specific memory-holding neurons, restoring youthful learning and recall in mice.
When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its metabolism is also altered. This process of neuronal ageing — inevitable with ...
Aging is the primary risk factor for numerous life-threatening diseases and has long been a central focus of biological research. Epigenetic reprogramming, a process that can modulate cell fate and ...
For those hoping to cure death, and they are legion, a 2016 experiment at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San ...
Billionaires are backing top scientists racing to develop tech that could reverse aging. Cellular reprogramming promises to rejuvenate the body — but how does it work, and is it safe? More from ...
A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...
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 ...
Jonas Salk quietly built the polio vaccine through rigorous, methodical work in Pittsburgh: treating patients, refining data, conducting massive trials, before unveiling results that altered the ...
