Scientists at UCLA have created one of the first cellular-resolution molecular maps detailing how Down syndrome alters human brain development before birth - a resource that resolves longstanding ...

Scientists mapped human brain development in Down syndrome at a cellular level, discovering that stem cells "rush" to become ...

A cellular-resolution map of prenatal brain development in Down syndrome reveals disrupted neuron production timing and altered cell types.

Cerebral Palsy Center reports Kidswell Bio is advancing stem cell therapy for cerebral palsy in the U.S., focusing on cells ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

Two major studies have mapped how Down syndrome reshapes brain development before birth and traced the genetic evolution of a rare leukemia affecting children with the condition. UCLA researchers ...

A new study led by scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and INSERM identified genes essential for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, including a gene linked to a previously ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper has demonstrated that this form of cellular ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international study, led by Hans Schöler of the Max Planck Institute for Molecular ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene linked to a severe neurodevelopmental disorder not previously described.
