The Extraordinary Potential of Totipotent Stem Cells
Totipotent stem cells possess the remarkable ability to give rise to an entire organism. These cells can generate both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues, making them unique in their potential. An exemplary instance of totipotent cells is the zygote, formed through fertilization, which can develop into every cell type in the embryo and the adult organism. […]
Unlocking the Secrets of Age-Resistant Stem Cells for Muscle Regeneration
Age-resistant stem cells. Scientists from the Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF), the National Center for Cardiovascular Research (CNIC), ICREA, and Ciberned. Have identified a physiological mechanism that maintains the regenerative ability of muscle stem cells. Surprisingly enduring the test of time much more than expected, up to geriatric age. This new study compiles the results of […]
