Discovery of Bar-Ilan University: Placental cells for natural addiction treatment

  • No comments
Stem cells derived from the placenta are able to reach damaged tissues in the brains of drug addicts and initiate a rehabilitation process in them. The innovative treatment may solve one of the most difficult challenges in the field of detoxification: the difficulty of

The very first program to create an embryo by creating artificial embryonic and placental stem cells

By creating artificial embryonic and placental stem cells and comparing them, the researchers from the Hebrew University identified about 14,000 sites in the genome that control the development of all the organs of the fetus
