These issues are largely resolved by using iPS stems cells that arise from somatic cells because they can be recovered from an adult source. Furthermore, if cells are recovered from a human donor ...

Have you ever walked out of a massage and felt like an emotional weight has been lifted? Somatic (which means “body”) therapy ...

Researchers pinpoint a cellular process called 'clonal hematopoiesis' as a new risk factor for cardiovascular problems. In ...

Body cells of different species can now be crossed to form somatic hybrids. This alternative to sexual breeding should facilitate the study of human genetics and provide insights into differentiation ...

Genome editing can be performed in germline cells (sperm, eggs or embryos) to induce heritable genetic changes or in somatic cells (other cells) to induce non-heritable changes. Somatic cell editing ...

Researchers uncover clonal hematopoiesis as a new cardiovascular risk factor suggesting colchicine as a possible treatment ...

When mastitis levels peaked at 25 cases in every 100 cows and somatic cell count spiked in the second half of the lactation, ...

Research Interests: Somatic Stem Cells and Aging, Genetic Mechanisms of Stem Cell Maintenance, Therapeutic Approaches to Tissue Rejuvenation, Mouse Models of Hair Graying, Melanocyte Stem Cells and ...

Using a small number of images as training data, AINU was able to correctly identify human somatic cells and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). The tool can also differentiate cancer ...

As direct descendants of ancient bacteria, mitochondria have always been a little alien. Now a study shows that mitochondria are possibly even stranger than we thought. The study, titled "Somatic ...

Somatic therapy is a type of mental health treatment that focuses on the body. More research is needed to explore the ...
