Getting blood from a stone is impossible, but growing blood from 3D mini hearts is now a reality. A research team led by Robert Zweigerdt, a developmental biologist at the Hannover Medical School, ...

The way in which blood stem cells evolve over a lifespan differs greatly between humans and mice, new research reveals. The findings provide a new understanding of the critical factors that influence ...

Normal, regulated growth of skeletal bones is a crucial part of the growth of mammals. This is a complex process involving the growth of cartilaginous cells or chondrocytes, their transformation into ...

LMU molecular biologist Gunnar Schotta decodes the epigenetic silencing of problematic retroviral gene sequences. While each cell contains the complete genetic blueprint of an organism, chemical marks ...
