Most tissues, also in adults, can renew with the help of the tissue stem cells that reside in them. The activity of tissue stem cells and the pace of tissue renewal varies a lot depending on the ...

whereas the other daughter cell remains a stem cell with unlimited proliferative ability. Although most of the tissues in adult organisms maintain a constant size, the cells that make up these ...

Stem cells function as a source of new cells to grow or replace specialised tissues. To perform this function, these cells must divide to renew themselves, while some of their descendants ...

Researchers have created a way to guide and control the development of stem cells into specific tissues and organs, opening ...

Investigators from Cedars-Sinai and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have identified a new way to deliver ...

Adult tissue-resident stem cells fuel renewal, repair, and remodeling of tissues to maintain their structure and function. Research in the Wickström lab aims to uncover how single stem cell behaviors ...
