How are stem cells related to aging? Most of the cells within the human body have defined life spans. Most cells can only divide and thus replace themselves between 30 and 50 times. After a cell has undergone its 50 divisions, it can divide no further and enters the cellular aging (more…)

Embryogenesis is a sequential process of differential gene expression dictated by the epigenetic environment. Exploiting epigenetic influence on phenotypic outcome, biotechnology platforms are developed for reversal of differentiation to achieve genetic reprogramming of adult sources (more…)

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are cancer cells (found within tumors or hematological cancers) that possess characteristics associated with normal stem cells, specifically the ability to give rise to all cell types found in a particular cancer sample. CSCs are therefore tumorigenic (tumor-forming), (more…)
