San Francisco, CA - Since the classical studies of Jacob and Monod in the early 1960s, it has been evident that genome sequences contain not only blueprints for genes and the proteins that they encode, but also the instructions for a coordinated regulatory program that governs when, where and to what extent these genes and proteins are expressed. The execution of this regulatory code is what allows for the creation of very different cell- and tissue-types from the same set of genetic instruct

San Francisco, CA –Aelan Cell Technologies, with an international research team, today released a study that reveals that age is a key determining factor in the efficacy of cell-based or pharmacological treatments. The study, published in the advanced online publication of Oncotarget: Gerotarget

Although you may think of your body as a fairly permanent structure, most of it is in a state of constant flux, as old cells are discarded and new ones generated in their place. Each type of tissue has its own turnover time, depending in part on the workload endured by its cells.

Adult stem cells are at the core of your body`s natural renewal system; 50 to 70 million cells are discarded and replaced daily.
