To date, more than 100 clinical trials with human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived products have been initiated worldwide ...

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent stem cells that can produce all cell types of an organism. ES cells proliferate rapidly and have been thought to experience high levels of intrinsic ...

A new approach to using stem cell–derived pancreatic islets has allowed a patient with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to come off insulin for 1 year. The chemically induced pluripotent stem cell–derived islets ...

For several years, researchers studied human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to understand the unique features of these pluripotent cells, but on their own, they poorly resembled the complex structures ...

Stem cell research is a rapidly growing field of study with huge potential for clinical solutions, taking advantage of the power and flexibility of pluripotency and self-renewal. Induced pluripotent ...
