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...

New Study Finds Selfish DNA (LINE-1) is Essential for Early Human Embryo Development
Recent research has shed light on how "selfish DNA," particularly LINE-1 transposons, plays a key role in early human development. Once viewed primarily as harmful, these elements have now been found to be essential for the normal formation and specialisation of cells during the embryo's early stages. Blocking their activity causes developmental di...

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...
