especially regarding the potential underrepresentation of certain trophoblast subsets. This is an important point as the challenges of studying a giant syncytial cell are often underappreciated by ...

Giant-cell arteritis is a vascular inflammatory disease that primarily affects large and medium-sized arteries, particularly the cranial branches of the aorta. The disease affects almost ...

SHREVEPORT, La. - Giant cell arteritis, also known as temporal arteritis, is a less common condition where people get inflammation of the arteries that go to the head and neck. Symptoms include ...

Now, a multi-institution team may well have found one – they’ve successfully taken regular giant panda skin cells, and transformed them into stem cells. Specifically, they’ve been able to ...

Having pluripotent cells essentially on demand could allow scientists to create giant panda primordial germ cells, precursors to sperm and egg cells, a feat that’s been done in mice and northern ...
