Brain grown from stem cells

Austrian scientists for the first time, the world has grown from stem cells in the human brain is small. The results of the research are published in the journal Nature. To grow a brain, biologists took skin cells healthy person and reprogrammed them into stem cells (iPSC, induced pluripotent stem cells), which can develop into any type of tissue. The thus obtained stem cells are first grown in a special gel substrate, the structure resembling the connective tissue of the human body, and then placed in a tray. After a while of stem cells grown some structures resembling embryonic brain during the ninth week of development. The diameter of each reached 3-4 mm. Under the microscope, the scientists were able to examine the interacting region of the brain. In the mini-brain was detected even bark. "The overall structure of the grown samples differed," - said Noblich. This is due to the fact that in normal fetal brain maturation run molecule growth factors produced elsewhe

Uncompromised Benefits of Stem Cells

The stem cell saga seems to be popularized at this point in time - with testimonials from prominent people admitting on TV and online news portals that they've gone through the process for various reasons and quite satisfied with the results. Stem cells are actually from the body's master cells that are extracted and processed for their curing capabilities that are found to be effective even in treating several chronic diseases. These cells can be found in some adult cells particularly from embryos and amniotic fluid. Adult stem cells are more flexible to be processed to create similar type of embryonic cells. Body tissues have rare substance cells but they normally generate new essential cells. The newly formed cells split into stem cells called self-renewed cells and specialized cells. Specialized cells are compatible with the cells in the brain, heart, blood and bone. They are capable of repairing damaged tissues and impaired body organs when infused. The following a
