A new way of watching cell growth uses tiny smart sensors that stay inside the culture chamber. The chambers, called G‑Rex, let cells expand quickly because they get oxygen and food just by moving air around them. Because no pumps are needed, the whole process is less complicated and cheaper t
Researchers want to know why stem‑cell treatments help some people with inflammation but not all. The focus is on mesenchymal stromal cells, or MSCs, which can lower immune reactions. Many clinical trials have shown that the treatments are safe, but it is still unclear how well they work because sci
Cancer is tricky. It finds ways to hide from the body's defense system. One way it does this is by using something called PD-1 and PD-L1. These are like secret handshakes that tell the immune system to back off. This makes it hard for treatments to work well. Scientists have a new tool called CRISP
CAR-T cell therapy is a big deal in cancer treatment. It can save lives, but it also comes with risks. One major risk is cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which can be really serious. While doctors often get the spotlight, nurses play a crucial role in managing CRS. They are often the first to spot p
A big step has been taken in the fight against a serious heart condition in kids. A company is testing a new stem cell treatment called laromestrocel. This treatment is being studied to help children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), a rare and severe heart defect. The good news is that t
Cancer treatments can be tough on the body, especially the mouth. It's crucial to take care of oral health before starting treatments like chemotherapy or CAR T-cell therapy. A new guide has been created to help doctors and dentists work together to manage this. This guide is for patients of all ag
The UFC has teamed up with the Cellular Performance Institute (CPI), a big name in stem cell and regenerative medicine. This deal means CPI's branding will be seen at major UFC events, like Pay-Per-View and Fight Night. CPI is now the UFC's first-ever Official Global Stem Cell Therapy Partner. Stem
Scientists have been using a powerful new tool to fight cancer. Now, they are testing it on a different kind of battle: rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This therapy, called CAR-T cell treatment, gives immune cells superpowers to fight diseases. In RA, the body's defense system turns against itself, causi
Lung cancer is a significant health issue, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a common type. One way to fight it is by targeting something called PD-L1, which is often found on lung cancer cells. Blocking PD-L1 can help the body's immune system attack the cancer. This is where aptamers come i
Sleep is not just about resting. It is a vital process that keeps the body running smoothly. This process is controlled by something called circadian rhythms. These rhythms affect many things in the body, including how well organs work and how healthy a person is overall. When sleep is disrupted, it
