A new study reveals that reprogramming specialized cells to become different types of cells, a key process in regenerative medicine, faces a major hurdle. The challenge lies in the DNA methylation ...

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 ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto 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 ...

CGTE researchers Dr. Stelios Andreadis, center director, and Dr. Kirk Personius are lead co-authors of a paper in the October 24th edition of Nature Communications. This study describes experiments ...

July 10, 2025 - A research team led by Professor Yiwei Li and Professor Bi-Feng Liu from the College of Life Science and Technology at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) published an ...

Metabolic reprogramming and circadian disruption drive cellular senescence. Discover how repurposing vutiglabridin to target ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered a key reason why immunotherapy has largely failed in pancreatic cancer—and identified a promising strategy to overcome that resistance.

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 ...

The interdisciplinary Center for Information Integrity provides support for collaborative research, public discussions and community outreach on mis/disinformation awareness and resilience.

When injured, cells have well-regulated responses to promote healing. These include a long-studied self-destruction process that cleans up dead and damaged cells as well as a more recently identified ...
