Estrogen receptor beta (ER-beta) is an important factor that should be considered in the design of new stem cell-based regenerative therapies for neurodegenerative conditions, a new Swedish-American collaborative study has concluded.

Researchers at Duke-National University of Singapore (Duke-NUS) Medical School have discovered for the first time that interleukin-11 (IL-11) may be an important therapeutic target for cardiovascular (CV) fibrotic diseases, including heart and renal failure, they reported in the Nov. 13, 2017, edition of Nature.

The creation of a new microdevice that allows generation of three-dimensional (3-D) axonal structures from human stem cell-derived neurons should facilitate future studies on axon development and allow drug screening for diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a new study has found.

The first 3-D map has been produced of the scaffold of a molecule called SgK223, which is now known to play a critical role in the development and spread of aggressive breast, colon and pancreatic cancers.
