Chinese scientists have found a way to turn human stem cells into dopamine-producing brain cells, transplanting them into mice and helping reduce depressive behaviour and boost pleasure. When the engineered neuron-like cells were grafted into depression-model mice, they helped lessen symptoms like anxiety and resignation while increasing feelings of enjoyment. The development has the potential to be employed as a …

The research also identified that superagers tended to be more sociable than their peers. …

The idea of taking blood from the young to rejuvenate the elderly is getting an increasing amount of attention from scientists, and a new study has shown how some of the youthful properties of our skin can be restored with this kind of blood swap. A special 3D human skin model was set up in the lab by researchers, who …

Japanese regulators just quietly gave researchers there a historic OK to generate human embryos from stem cells in the lab — no ovaries or testes needed. Scientists in Japan and around the world are quickly working toward making viable human eggs and sperm from stem cells, a process called in vitro gametogenesis, or IVG. Those stem cell-derived sperm and eggs …

Groundbreaking research led by a Swansea University academic has revealed a synthetic glycosystem – a sugar-coated polymer nanoparticle – that can block Covid-19 from infecting human cells, reducing infection rates by nearly 99%. The glycosystem is a specially designed particle that mimics natural sugars found on human cells. These sugars, known as polysialosides, are made of repeating units of sialic …

Indoor light is an untapped source of energy for billions of small electronics. Devices like remote controls, keyboards, smoke alarms, and sensors spend their entire lifetimes in lit spaces but rely on batteries that need replacement. As the number of connected devices grows with the rise of the Internet of Things, replacing those batteries is becoming costly, labour-intensive, and environmentally …
