Researchers from Shibaura Institute of Technology have designed and synthesized novel vitamin K analogues conjugated with retinoic acid, which exhibit potent neuronal differentiation-inducing ...

AMSBIO (Oxford, UK) announces an innovative range of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) kits for researchers requiring a rapid, reproducible, and scalable means of generating specific neural cell ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have linked genetic variants to neuropsychiatric disorders, but their regulatory roles in non-coding regions remain largely unclear. Using the LUHMES neuronal ...

Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's are characterized by irreversible neuron damage and limited natural repair mechanisms. While stem cell therapy holds great promise for ...

In a study published in Cell Stem Cell, researchers led by Profs. DAI Jianwu and ZHAO Yannan from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have ...

A new study led by scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and INSERM identified genes essential for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, including a gene linked to a previously ...

Researchers have synthesized enhanced vitamin K analogues that outperform natural vitamin K in promoting neuron growth. The new compounds, which combine vitamin K with retinoic acid, activate the ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba and affiliated institutes have developed a publicly accessible single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) atlas that captures developmental and neurogenic processes in ...
