New data show midkine expression is heightened in small cell lung cancer, suggesting the growth factor may be an important ...

Scientists discover zebrafish hair cells can regenerate without cell division, challenging decades of textbook biology and ...

Zebrafish can regrow hearing cells we can't, and scientists have just found two genes that may explain how. This discovery ...

Zebrafish can regenerate sensory hair cells that humans permanently lose, like those in the inner ear linked to hearing and ...

Other experts agree that the work makes a strong case for adult neurogenesis. While a single study does not constitute absolute proof, "this is strong evidence in support of the idea" that stem cells ...

Mycoplasma contamination poses several risks to cell physiology, including interfering with DNA and RNA synthesis, inducing ...

Researchers identify specific genes involved in sensory hair cell regrowth in zebrafish, potentially informing hearing loss ...

In other experiments, this same set of transcription factors was found to be consistently on in all proliferating cell lines tested. This included 79 cell lines, mostly from human cancers, ...

A decline in the expression of the epigenetic regulator Setd8 in neural stem cells (NSCs) during early adulthood leads to chromatin condensation and reduced gene expression, suppressing NSC ...
