The amount of sugar in the brain plays a key role in governing the activity of the brain cells that make myelin, a study ...

Shifting brain glucose levels act as a metabolic switch that directs OPC proliferation and myelin formation, revealing a mechanism with developmental and clinical implications.

Following a heart attack, the human body is incapable of repairing lost tissue due to the heart's inability to generate new muscle. However, treatment with heart progenitor cells could result in the ...

Researchers at the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) have uncovered a surprising link between low brain sugar levels and the development of myelin - the ...

The human body contains an array of coexisting commensal microbes, primarily gut bacteria, which have been linked to the regulation of hematopoiesis, or the production of blood and its components ...

Stem cells and progenitor cells play an important role in the renewal of multiple tissues. Scientists have discovered a molecule called embigin on the surface of epithelia progenitor cells and proven ...

“During development and tissue regeneration, stem and progenitor cells give rise to differentiated cell types in defined numbers and proportions to properly generate and maintain organs and body plans ...
