Although this stem cell model of a notochord is a simple structure, it could help researchers study spine-related birth ...

Francis Crick Institute scientists developed a rudimentary human spine via stem cells in a laboratory. They have created a ...

The human spine has been transformed into a weight bearing column, putting it under unprecedented stresses and dooming us to the likelihood of back injuries and pain. As remarkable as our ...

A new study reveals new insights into ependymal cells and astrocytes and offers a promising approach for future SCI therapies ...

In a major yet surprising turn of events, scientists have managed to grow a human spine in a laboratory.As per Popular ...

Scientists have generated human stem cell models which contain notochord -- a tissue in the developing embryo that acts like a navigation system, directing cells where to build the spine and ...

Spine regulation is the biological process by which the structure or function of a dendritic spine is modulated by factors such as neuronal excitation. The structure of dendritic spines is highly ...

(CN) — Researchers engineered and implanted functional human spinal cord tissues that showed success in treating paralysis in lab models. The study, published Monday in the journal Advanced Science, ...
