Exposure to this flavor in e-cigarettes disrupts early embryonic stem cell development, posing serious potential risks to ...

Stem cell-based embryo models (SCBEMs) offer new ways for studying early human development while circumventing ethical challenges associated with natural embryos. Traditionally, SCBEMs are categorised ...

A molecular pathway known for controlling cell shape and movement also helps regulate the rhythm by which the vertebrate body ...

A lot happens in the first month of human embryo development as a single cell morphs into multitudes. Yet despite its significance, this period is basically a “black box” to researchers, says stem ...

Embryonic development, also known as embryogenesis, is a cornerstone in understanding the origins of life. But studying this marvel of intricate and layered biological processes in people faces ...

A stem-cell-based monkey embryo model that self-organizes into a comprehensive body plan could lead the way to more-sophisticated models of early human development. Xiangyu Kong is in the Department ...

A small tissue fold in fly embryos, once thought purposeless, plays a vital role in stabilizing tissues. Researchers show that it absorbs stress during early development, and its position and timing ...

Over half of our genomes consists of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable elements, which are widespread across the tree of life. Once dismissed as the 'dark side' of the ...

Vanillin, a flavoring chemical commonly used in e-cigarettes, may interfere with early embryonic development, according to ...
