New rapid test offers real-time insights into cartilage-forming stem cells
Researchers from the Critical Analytics for Manufacturing Personalized-Medicine (CAMP), an interdisciplinary research group of the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology, have developed a rapid, non-destructive technique to monitor iron flux in mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). The advance enables scientists […]
Stem cells successfully treat diabetes associated with cancer therapy
Cancer immunotherapies employ the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors which may include unwanted side effects such as type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease characterised by insufficient insulin secretion – strategies for preventing or curing type 1 […]
Silk composite scaffold helps with fast and effective tendon regeneration
Complete healing of a damaged tendon is almost impossible, and the tendon in question can never return to the function and flexibility it once had. Researchers at the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation (TIBI) in California, US, have shown how […]
