A stem cell-based muscle patch improved heart pumping in a small study of advanced heart failure, offering an early clinical signal for regenerative cardiac therapy.

Researchers at King's College London report that keratin extracted from wool supported bone regeneration in animal tests and produced tissue that more closely resembled healthy bone than collagen-based standards.

Researchers developing a tissue-based knee implant say a biological replacement could reduce pain, improve integration with the body, and expand options for patients who are poor fits for today’s metal-and-plastic prosth

A clinical trial targeting age-related vision disorders is renewing interest in partial reprogramming, a field that aims to rejuvenate damaged tissue without fully resetting cells to an embryonic state.

A new report says a novel gene-based therapy helped nerves heal better after severe peripheral injury, offering a potential advance for patients who often face lasting weakness, numbness, or loss of function.

A study published in Cell Research reports a checkpoint that helps control the identity of multiple stem cell types across developmental stages, pointing to a potentially unifying principle in stem cell biology.

Researchers have demonstrated that transplanted neural stem cells can help preserve vision in models of retinal degeneration, offering a potential treatment pathway for conditions that currently have no cure.
