Stem Cell Transplants Without Toxic Chemo or Radiation

Stem Cell Transplants Without Toxic Chemo or Radiation

A Stanford Medicine team has developed a novel antibody-based approach that prepares patients for stem cell transplants without relying on toxic chemotherapy or radiation. Credit: Stock A Phase 1 clinical trial has shown that an antibody developed at Stanford Medicine can prepare patients for stem cell transplantation while avoiding toxic side effects. A phase 1 clinical trial has demonstrated that …

Japan says researchers can make human embryos from stem cells

Japan says researchers can make human embryos from stem cells

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 …

Scientists grow mini amniotic sacs in the lab using stem cells

Scientists grow mini amniotic sacs in the lab using stem cells

Researchers have developed a new laboratory model grown from stem cells that replicates the human amniotic sac in the first two to four weeks after fertilization. The structure, which the researchers say is the most advanced and mature amniotic model ever created, could offer new insight into human development and lead to cell products for medical procedures, from burn treatments …
