The controversial discovery that our brains can generate new neurons surprisingly late in life is now prompting a rethink of ...

Aging is the price paid for the ability of experiencing existence, one might philosophize. Natural cellular aging begins with ...

Scientists have turned blood cells from an 80-year-old into neural stem cells with a molecular age of less than 20, ...

An ancient viral insertion silences LINC00662 in chimpanzee cells, while the gene is active during early human brain ...

Corinth coach Justin Dye survived a brain tumor, stroke, meningitis and a partial hand amputation — and kept coaching football, powerlifting and track through it all.

A repetitive stretch of noncoding DNA helps regulate a gene active in human but not chimpanzee forebrain progenitor cells.

Human neural stem cells that help form the brain and spinal cord are highly susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, including omicron ...

Imagine using stem cells to create a fragment of a human brain in a petri dish. It has no eyes to see, no mouth to speak, and ...

A new preprint links the company’s cell therapy to less brain inflammation in Alzheimer’s, just as it heads out on an ...

A new study traced the forebrain and hindbrain to separate evolutionary lineages, then researchers used that discovery to ...

Aging can impair stem cell self-renewal and differentiation through molecular damage, inflammation, and changes in the surrounding tissue environment, contributing to slower repair. Experimental ...

Scientists have directly converted old blood cells into neural stem cells that biologically rejuvenate, becoming younger as ...
