Stem cell transplant for stroke leads to brain cell growth and functional recovery in mice
When someone has a stroke—a leading worldwide cause of death and disability—time is of the essence. Almost nine out of 10 cases are ischemic strokes, caused by restricted blood flow in the brain, and ...
Every year, millions of lives are suddenly, swiftly transformed by a stroke, which occurs when a blood vessel travelling towards the brain becomes obstructed, causing neurons to die off. Strokes are ...
Japan has approved the world’s first stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease, offering new hope for millions globally. The treatment uses induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to replace damaged ...
A team of scientists—including Agnieszka Ciesielska (left), Barbara Klein (center), and Jeanne Paz (right)—showed that modified stem cells can improve brain activity, even when administered more than ...
