Researchers discovered that vanillin used in e-cigarettes targets the TRPV4 protein, potentially disrupting human embryonic ...

The development of an embryo is one of the most fundamental processes in biology. Early in this process, it is determined which cells will give rise to which tissues—controlled by epigenetic marks ...

Embryo development starts when a single egg cell is fertilized and starts dividing continuously. Initially a chaotic cluster, it gradually evolves into a highly organized structure. Scientists have ...

The team mapped the spatial and temporal patterns of glucose uptake using single-cell-resolution imaging of developing mouse embryos, stem cell models, and embryo-derived tissues. They found that the ...

Using CRISPR-based engineering methods to prompt stem cells to organize into embryo-like structures, scientists were able to create 'programmable' cellular models of embryos without ever experimenting ...

Magdalena (Magda) Zernicka-Goetz, today a developmental and stem cell biologist at the University of Cambridge and California Institute of Technology, recalled being an artistic child who enjoyed ...

Embryo fragmentation is a common finding during IVF, but it does not always mean an embryo cannot result in a healthy ...

For several years, researchers studied human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to understand the unique features of these pluripotent cells, but on their own, they poorly resembled the complex structures ...
