In regenerative medicine, macrophages and stem cells play pivotal roles in repairing central nervous system (CNS) injuries. These cells are instrumental due ...

Damage to the body's peripheral nerves can cause pain and movement disorders. Researchers have recently investigated how damaged nerves can regenerate better. They found that fat tissue strongly ...

University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered how the cells that let us hear can repair themselves after being damaged. That important insight could benefit efforts to develop ...

CHARLOTTESVILLE — University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered how the cells that let us hear can repair themselves after being damaged. That important insight could benefit ...

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

For decades, damaged joint cartilage has been a one-way street toward pain, stiffness, and eventually metal and plastic replacements. Now researchers are uncovering ways to coax the body into ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

In a study published in Cell Research, researchers have identified a fibrous-layer resident subpopulation of P-SSCs labeled ...

DNA is often described as the instruction manual for building the fundamental components of life. Proteins are helpers that aid DNA in carrying out essential processes such as replication, repair, and ...

Scientists have mapped the sensory neurons in bone for the first time, and identified their dual role in reporting and ...
