• New insights into how stem cells determine what tissue to become
  

  Within 24 hours of culturing adult human stem cells on a new type of matrix, University of Michigan researchers were able to make predictions about how the cells would differentiate, or what type of tissue they would become. Their results are published in the Aug. 1 edition of Nature Methods. Diffe more

• New stem cell research could make lab mice redundant

  Researchers from the University of Bath are embarking on a project to use stem cell technology that could reduce the number of animal experiments used to study conditions such as motor neurone disease. Dr Vasanta Subramanian, from the University’s Department of Biology & Biochemistry, will be develo more

• Scientists closer to making implantable bone material, thanks to new research

  Scientists are closer to understanding how to grow replacement bones with stem cell technology, thanks to research published in the journal Nature Materials. Many scientists are currently trying to create bone-like materials, derived from stem cells, to implant into patients who have damaged or fra more

• Superior Transfection of Human Embryonic Stem Cells with FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent
  

  Gene manipulation techniques are potentially powerful tools in many applications for human embryonic stem (ES) cell research. Controlling expression levels of specific genes may improve the efficiency of differentiation induction. Cell types of interest may be collected using marker genes and antibiotic resistance genes. Tracking of ES cells derived after engraftment could be facilitated by tracer genes. It may also be possible to selectively destroy transplanted cells. more
