A Northwestern Medicine study has shed light on one of the most intricate construction projects in biology: how cells build and coordinate the internal scaffolding needed to create a healthy egg. The ...

According to a study published Tuesday in Nature Communications, researchers have successfully transplanted the nucleus from a skin cell to create new eggs that could allow patients to have ...

Scientists have used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs capable of producing early embryos, an advance that could expand possibilities for fertility treatment, according to new research. The ...

Scientists have made a landmark breakthrough that enables the creation of viable human egg cells from a skin cell, new research claims. The study, published in Nature Communications, detailed how US ...

Scientists at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) have successfully transformed human skin cells into egg cells, marking a significant advancement in fertility research. This breakthrough offers ...

An egg cell and a sperm need to hold together tightly in the Fallopian tube in order to fuse, resulting in the creation of a new organism. One key part of this process involves the proteins Juno, on ...

Scientists said Tuesday they have turned human skin cells into eggs and fertilized them with sperm in the lab for the first time—a breakthrough that is hoped to one day let infertile people have ...
