Gallbladder problems are a common complication in individuals with sickle cell disease. These issues often arise due to the breakdown of red blood cells and the subsequent formation of gallstones ...

Experimental AMD reveals organo-specific activation of cytotoxic and helper T cells in the retina Our T cell analysis suggests a role for an early hit of the memory T cell system in AMD pathogenesis ...

A woman with a failing heart has been kept alive with the help of a new "breakthrough" stem-cell technology ... the woman's heart was implanted with tiny patches of heart muscle cells, which ...

Animals: This is a study based on research on whole animals. Researchers from Germany and the US have developed a stem cell based patch that can be placed on a failing heart to help strengthen it and ...

STEM cell patches can fix heart failure by regenerating the muscle, tests show. The treatment was found to increase the thickness of the heart wall, helping it to contract better to pump blood ...

Researchers have shown that patches of muscle grown from stem cells ... from an adult state to allow them to differentiate into any cell type in the body — for cardiac repair at the University ...

Scott shared that the Silverstone ultra-widefield imaging device (Optos) can provide simultaneous images of the macula and the retinal periphery, making it a key research tool for sickle cell disease.

Sickle cell anaemia, a hereditary condition that primarily affects African and Mediterranean populations, continues to pose significant health challenges. In Uganda, where the disease is prevalent ...
