induced pluripotent stem cells

For the first time in the world, a group of Japanese researchers have used human multi-functional stem cells (iPS) to create immature reproductive cells, which can develop into

Japanese scientists have just announced the successful transplants of human skin cells, opening hope for many blind people around the world.

Researchers claim to have found a new stem cell therapy, which can help people re-grow lost limbs or parts like lizards.

US scientists can create early-stage sperm from skin cells, opening a new hope for treating male infertility.

British and American scientists have successfully created a piece of epidermis - the outermost layer of skin, from stem cells in the laboratory.

Scientists have used stem cells extracted from the skin to develop 3D tissue that mimics a human brain. The breakthrough is expected to help treat neurological diseases such as

Current science suggests that all cells in the body contain identical DNA. However, a new study of skin stem cells has found that genetic variation is widespread in the body's
