Biomedical engineers at Duke University have used induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to grow specialized blood vessel ...

Biomedical engineers use iPSCs to grow specialized retinal endothelial cells, successfully regenerating damaged eye blood ...

Investigators from the Center for Advanced Gerotherapeutics at Cedars-Sinai found that aged blood vessel cells play a key role in the development of metabolic disorders, including diabetes. The ...

Using computer-designed proteins, researchers have now shown they are able to direct human stem cells to form new blood vessels in the lab. This milestone in regenerative medicine offers new hope for ...

The cells lining skin capillaries are constantly sending each other messages—tiny pulses of calcium that help regulate blood ...

Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo, detail how clusters of cells detach from primary tumors and penetrate blood-vessel walls to enter the bloodstream, ...

Stem cells are finicky creatures. With the ability to generate any type of cell in the body, they’re constantly bombarded by chemical, hormone, and other signals. Some of these signals nudge them to ...

The communication network in the developing brain builds when neurons partner up to form contact points called synapses, allowing signals to pass from one cell to another. At the same time, a web of ...

Scientists in America have carried out significant new research ...

Scientists are closing in on a surprising new way to tackle diabetes: hunting down “zombie cells” that clog blood vessels and fat tissue and quietly sabotage metabolism. Instead of only trying to push ...

Water flow plays a surprising role in the formation of new blood vessels as zebrafish develop, RIKEN researchers have discovered. This finding advances our understanding of how blood vessels sprout ...

Using computer-designed proteins, researchers have now shown they are able to direct human stem cells to form new blood vessels in the lab. This milestone in regenerative medicine offers new hope for ...
