Girl receives vein transplant grown from her own stem cells
Scientists in London have successfully transplanted a vein made from a 10-year-old girl’s own stem cells back into her own body. It is the first time such an operation has been reported and marks an important step in the practical ability of doctors to use stem cells to grow replacement cells for damaged or diseased [… Read More]
Our heart could heal itself with new stem-cell treatment breakthrough
Scientists have come up with a way to trigger the heart to heal itself after an attack, minimising the risk of future failure. A team at the University College London (UCL) injected a common protein in to test mice, and found it prompted the outer-layer of the heart, called the epicardium, to replace damaged vascular [… Read More]
Scientists grow proto-eyes in the lab
In a major advance toward regenerative medicine, researchers have for the first time coaxed stem cells from a mammal into becoming an embryonic eye, according to a study released today. The results, published in Nature, show that growing a complex human organ inside a petri dish – while still a long way off – is no [… Read More]
NASA: Astronomers detect oxygen deep in space
A spacecraft has tasted oxygen in the atmosphere of another world for the first time while flying low over Saturn’s icy moon, Rhea. NASA‘s Cassini probe scooped oxygen from the thin atmosphere of the planet’s moon while passing overhead at an altitude of 97 kilometres in March. Until now, wisps of oxygen have been detected [… Read More]
