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 ...

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

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

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 ...

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

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 ...

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 method announced by the Abu Dhabi Stem Cells Center enables scientists to produce brain stem cells from a patient’s own ...

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.
