Scientists Reportedly Reversed Type 1 Diabetes by Reprogramming Patient's Fat Cells into Insulin-Producing Cells
Chinese researchers have, for the first time, reprogrammed a woman’s fat cells to become insulin-producing pancreatic cells, reversing her need for insulin injections for over a year. In this study, fat cells were chemically reverted into stem-like cells and transformed into islet cells, which are normally found in the pancreas. The cells, implan...

Scientists Create World's First "Synthetic" Embryo With Brain, Beating Heart: Report
Scientists from the University of Cambridge have created world's first "synthetic" embryo that has a brain, a beating heart, and the building blocks for every other organ in the body.

Synthetic Mouse Embryo With Developed Brain Grown Using Stem Cells
Scientists have developed synthetic mouse embryos from stem cells. The model embryos feature beating hearts and even foundations for the brain and other organs of a mouse's body. The achievement is likely to help researchers unravel why some embryos successfully develop into a foetus while others fail to do so.

Iron Nanowires for Bone Cell Formation Developed, Could Pave Way for Degenerative Bone Disease Treatments
In a remarkable finding, scientists have developed a nanotechnology platform that could pave way for new treatments for degenerative bone diseases. In their study, the scientists developed a technology that involves the use of iron nanowires. These nanowires bend in response to magnetic fields. Scientists grew bone-forming stem cells on the mesh of...

Scientists Create 3D-Printed Wagyu Beef, and It Looks Like the Real Deal
Researchers from Osaka University say that the steak created in the lab bears great resemblance to that made from the world-renowned Wagyu beef cattle. To achieve this, the team isolated stem cells from Wagyu cows. These stem cells were then incubated and converted into muscle, fat, and blood vessel cells.
