In the 1990s, a team led by MIT’s Leonard P. Guarente, Ph.D., experimented on yeast, more formally known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They identified an important set of genes involved in regulating a ...

Researchers have found that serum from younger blood can be combined with bone marrow cells and injected into older skin cells, producing rejuvenating effects. This is known as heterochronic ...

The skin has two types of adult stem cells: epidermal and hair follicle. Their jobs seem well-defined: maintaining the skin, or maintaining hair growth. But as research from Rockefeller University has ...

Senescent skin cells, often referred to as zombie cells because they have outlived their usefulness without ever quite dying, have existed in the human body as a seeming paradox, causing inflammation ...

In a new study, researchers from the University of Tokyo, Harvard University, and the International Research Center for Neurointelligence have unveiled a technique for creating lifelike robotic skin ...

National Taiwan University researchers, with collaborators in Taiwan and the US, report that adipocyte lipolysis activates epithelial hair follicle stem cells and drives hair regeneration via ...

Rockefeller scientists uncovered how hair follicle stem cells can switch from growing hair to repairing skin when nutrients run low. The key lies in serine, an amino acid that activates a stress ...

Animal bodies are crackling with electrical signals. Even before development is complete, electric fields guide the movement and arrangement of embryonic cells. 1 In adults, neurons communicate with ...
