Using defined media and extracellular matrices, researchers show that hiPSC pre-culture conditions strongly influence ...

When cells express specific genes that characterise a certain type of cell we say that a cell has become differentiated. Check your understanding of division and differentiation in human cells. Brush ...

Explore scalable strategies for iPSC-derived islet differentiation using GMP-grade activin A and KGF to advance diabetes ...

Researchers at the CiRA Foundation in Kyoto, Japan, have published a detailed study [1] showing how carefully defined culture ...

The sugar glucose, which is the main source of energy in almost every living cell, has been revealed in a Stanford Medicine study to also be a master regulator of tissue differentiation - the process ...

The Notch signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in determining cell fate, especially in the development and function of T cells. But mimicking this highly mechanical, contact-dependent pathway in the ...

Single cell gene expression studies often rely on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) alone. While scRNA-seq reveals which genes are turned on, it does not capture protein expression or changes to ...

Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine, utilizing mouse models, reveal that oligodendrocyte precursor cells differentiate at a consistent, extensive rate throughout adulthood.
