Princeton Researchers Develop More Precise Gene-Editing Tool
TEHRAN (ANA)- Princeton scientists make a major improvement to a CRISPR-based gene-editing tool called “prime editing.”
Scientists Uncover Molecular Fingerprint of Biological Aging
TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have identified blood-based markers that are associated with healthy and accelerated aging which can help predict a person’s biological age, which reflects the aging rate of their cells and organs, independent of their chronological age.
Scientists Develop New Treatment for Tendon-Bone Injuries
TEHRAN (ANA)- A research team, led by the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics (SIC), has developed a multicellular scaffold based on inorganic bioceramics for treating tendon-to-bone injuries.
New Research Sheds Light on Stem Cell Repair Mechanisms
TEHRAN (ANA)- A new research by an international team of scientists demonstrates that once stem cells have entered this state, known as lineage plasticity, they cannot function effectively in either role until they choose a definitive fate.
Scientists in Iran Make Artificial Ovary for Transplantation of Ovarian Cells
TEHRAN (ANA)- Iranian researchers at Royan Research Institute succeeded in making an artificial ovary to settle the problem of transplanting ovarian cells.
Iranian Scientists Make Nanobiosensor for Simple, Fast Detection of Sepsis Biomarkers
TEHRAN (ANA)- Iranian researchers succeeded in making a nano-biosensor that can help simple and quick detection of CRP and IL-6 biomarkers in sepsis disease.
Iranian Researchers Locally Produce Nanocomposites, Nanoparticles in Low Temperature Cell Preservation Process
TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers at the Royan Institute in the Iranian capital of Tehran have domestically produced nanocomposites and nanoparticles in the process of low temperatures cell preservation.
Scientists Discover Biological Mechanism of Hearing Loss Caused by Loud Noise
TEHRAN (ANA)- Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have identified a molecular mechanism responsible for noise-induced hearing loss through excess zinc in the inner ear.
Breakthrough Could Reduce Cultivated Meat Production Costs by Up to 90%
TEHRAN (ANA)- A breakthrough by scientists at Tufts University in cellular agriculture, enabling bovine cells to produce their own growth factors, promises significant cost reductions in cultivated meat production.
Scientists Develop Novel Bone Bandage Material for Cracked Bones
TEHRAN (ANA)- A groundbreaking development in bone regeneration has been achieved with the creation of a piezoelectric scaffold by a KAIST-led research team.
