DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES - For the first time in history, USC researchers have derived authentic embryonic stem (ES) cells from rats. This breakthrough finding will enable scientists to create far more ...

Using the blastocyst complementation method, we produced rat embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived sperm in testicular hypoplasia mice and successfully generated rat offspring. This method can provide a ...

A rat embryonic stem cells derived lung generated within a mouse body stained with epithelial cells (labelled with E-cadherin, shown in gray), rat cells (shown in green), mouse cells (shown in red), ...

Adding rat stem cells to a mouse embryo resulted in a ‘hybrid brain’ in which the rat cells stepped in to restore function when the mouse’s sense of smell was removed, new research has shown. It’s the ...

Rie Natsume and her collaborators have recently developed an innovative and cost-effective method for generating rats that inherit traits from embryonic stem (ES) cells. Unlike mouse ES cells, rat ES ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Skin cells re-programmed to act like embryonic stem cells eased symptoms of Parkinson's disease in rats, researchers reported on Monday in a first step toward tailored ...

Hundreds of mouse pups with partial rat brains have been born from embryos made from a mix of mouse and rat cells, marking the first time that the brain of one species has been grown in another from ...
