Scientists find stem cell switch
Scientists have discovered how plant stem cells in roots detect soil structure and whether it is favourable for growth. view more (2007-07-27)
OU Cancer Institute Scientists Identify New Cancer Stem Cell Marker; Developing Drug to Stop Cancer Recurrence
After years of working toward this goal, scientists at the OU Cancer Institute have found a way to isolate cancer stem cells in tumors so they can target the cells and kill them, keeping cancer from returning. view more (2008-09-12)
ESC Congress 2004: Converting cells into heart muscle
Bone marrow derived stem cells can give rise to heart muscle cells. This plasticity concept - the ability of bone marrow cell to transdifferentiate into heart muscle cell - is supported by experimental and clinical data. Another possibility is to replace the missing function by causing transdifferentiation of existing cells. Transdifferentiation... view more... (2004-08-30)
Agreement reached on an international human stem cell project
An international project to co-ordinate human stem cell research across the globe was agreed at a 12-country* International Stem Cell Forum meeting chaired by the Medical Research Council (MRC) on Friday 11 July. Stem cell therapy is a potentially revolutionary way to repair diseased and damaged body tissues with healthy new cells. But a huge... view more... (2003-07-15)
Novel strategy under study for aggressive leukemia
A novel strategy to hopefully beat into oblivion one of the most aggressive forms of acute myelogenous leukemia combines the strengths of some of the newest leukemia agents, researchers say. view more (2007-09-25)
MGH study identifies first molecular steps to childhood leukemia
A Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)-based research team has identified how a chromosomal abnormality known to be associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) - the most common cancer in children - initiates the disease process. view more (2009-07-16)
Statement from the European Life Sciences Group
The promises and concerns engendered by stem cell research triggered debate world-wide. European citizens realise the significance of these issues and expect guidance to deal with them. The European Life Sciences Group thanks the European Commission and the European Commissioner for Research, Philippe Busquin, for arranging such a stimulating... view more... (2001-12-19)
The European Science Foundation publishes policy briefing for human stem cell research
The policy paper recommends the permission of studies of stem cells from embryos and adults, reproductive cloning should not be permitted, but therapeutic cloning should be allowed. There are many chronic, serious and disabling human diseases such as, Parkinson's Disease, Cystic Fibrosis and Huntington's Chorea, for which there are no current... view more... (2001-06-25)
New way to make stem cells avoids risk of cancer
A team of scientists has advanced stem cell research by finding a way to endow human skin cells with embryonic stem cell-like properties without inserting potentially problematic new genes into their DNA. view more (2009-03-27)
Isolation of a new gene family essential for early development
Researchers at BRIC, University of Copenhagen, have identified a new gene family (UTX-JMJD3) essential for embryonic development. The family controls the expression of genes crucial for stem cell maintenance and differentiation, and the results may contribute sig-nificantly to the understanding of the development of cancer. view more (2007-08-23)
Columbia University Medical Center researchers discover potential mechanism for tumor growth
Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have identified an inherent feature of stem and progenitor cells that may promote initiation and progression of cancerous tumors. view more (2005-12-16)
Great potential for new success in Swedish stem cell research
Swedish stem cell researchers are in a good position to become even more successful than in recent years. This can be achieved by improving the collaboration between research groups, and by increasing the number of researchers in the field through, for example, the introduction of "come-home" grants for those who have been abroad.... view more...

Study identifies 5 genetic themes key to keeping stem cells in a primitive, flexible state
For more than 25 years, stem cells have been defined based on what they can become: more of themselves, as well as multiple different specialized cell types. view more (2007-06-20)
Tapping into spinal cures
Stem cells which give rise to vertebrae, muscle and the spinal cord have been identified for the first time by Dr. Valerie Wilson (University of Edinburgh). "These axial stem cells could be used in the future to help replace damaged tissues after back injuries", says Dr. Wilson who will be presenting her work at the Society for... view more...

When is a stem cell not really a stem cell?
Working with embryonic mouse brains, a team of Johns Hopkins scientists seems to have discovered an almost-too-easy way to distinguish between "true" neural stem cells and similar, but less potent versions. view more (2007-08-27)
U of MN researchers identify new cord blood stem cell
Researchers at the University of Minnesota Medical School have discovered a new population of cells in human umbilical cord blood that have properties of primitive stem cells. view more (2006-02-14)
New stem-cell findings can help the body to cure itself
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have identified an important mechanism that regulates how many new cells are produced by each intestinal stem cell. The study is published in the latest issue of the prestigious scientific journal, Cell. view more (2006-06-16)
Mount Sinai Hospital researcher develops Canada's first embryonic stem cell lines
A senior scientist at Mount Sinai Hospital has developed Canada's first two human embryonic stem cell lines, giving researchers across the country new potential and hope for eventually discovering treatments and cures for many chronic and fatal diseases. view more (2005-06-08)
Stem cell protein offers a new cancer target
A protein abundant in embryonic stem cells is now shown to be important in cancer, and offers a possible new target for drug development, report researchers from the Stem Cell Program at Children's Hospital Boston. view more (2009-06-02)
Xie Lab uncovers molecular machinery related to stem cell fate
The Stowers Institute's Xie Lab has revealed how the BAM protein affects germline stem cell differentiation and how it is involved in regulating the quality of stem cells through intercellular competition. view more (2009-06-29)
