LEIDEN, Netherlands — Ncardia, a leader in stem cell–based solutions for drug discovery and safety assessment, today announced the launch of Ncyte® NHP-C vCardiomyocytes, the first commercially available ventricular-like cardiomyocytes derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of cynomolgus monkeys. New Ncyte® NHP-C vCardiomyocytes provide a scalable, ethical and translational tool for cross-species cardiac studies. [Read more…]
A Beginner’s Guide to Stem Cell Therapy: Everything to Know
Stem cell therapy, also called regenerative medicine, is gaining traction around the globe. This procedure aims to improve the repair response of dysfunctional and damaged tissue via stem cell implantation. As such, it represents an innovative way of combating various diseases and injuries.
You may be aware there’s a lot of hearsay floating around the topic. Stem cell treatments are in the epicenter of heated debates. We’re going to ignore all that and explore two facts: the ability of stem cells to self-renew unlimitedly and repair tissues in our bodies. [Read more…]
Could MSC Therapeutics Revolutionize Modern Medicine as We Know It?
MCSs are multipotent progenitor cells capable of developing into a variety of cell types during human development, including adipocytes, chondrocytes, osteocytes, and cardiomyocytes. Population aging and an increasing prevalence of chronic disease are driving interest in MSC-based therapies. Over the past 150 years, the average human lifespan has doubled and continued increases in life-expectancy are expected. [Read more…]

How To (Potentially) Avoid ACL Surgery With Stem Cell Treatment
Despite ACL surgeries being more readily available than ever before, torn knee ligaments are still one of the most dreaded injuries for athletes and other active people. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is responsible for stabilizing the knee. If it tears after a sudden wrenching movement, then stability and ease of motion are destroyed. Until recently, ACL surgeries seemed to be the only way for patients to escape the pain, stiffness, and stability loss that comes with an ACL injury.
Fortunately, stem cell treatment may now represent a viable way for some patients to repair torn knee ligaments while avoiding invasive ACL surgeries.
