A new process for converting skin cells to neurons directly could make it easier to develop therapies for neurodegenerative disorders.

Challenging the long-standing belief that fibroblasts produce skin collagen, researchers have investigated collagen formation in the 'glass-skinned' amphibian axolotl and other vertebrates. They ...

MIT researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord ...

“We were able to get to yields where we could ask questions about whether these cells can be viable candidates for the cell ...

Converting one type of cell to another - for example, a skin cell to a neuron - can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a "pluripotent" stem cell, then ...

A new technique developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology helps convert skin cells into neurons without needing ...

Researchers at Pusan National University studied nanoplastics' impact on red blood cell development in baby zebrafish, raising concerns about their broader effects on blood formation.

A vast number of chemicals are registered for production and use around the world. But only a portion have been thoroughly ...

Metastatic melanoma, also known as stage IV melanoma, is a type of skin cancer that spreads to other parts of the body. It is ...
