The Stem Cell Science Round Up

Airway-on-a-Chip – Researchers developed an airway-on-a-chip system using iPSCs to study ciliary function and model primary ciliary dyskinesia.

Spatial Transcriptomics at Scale – Sci-Space is a new spatial transcriptomic method that can reveal spatially expressed genes across cell types on a large scale.

Senescent Cells in Spinal Injuries– Researchers identified a difference in senescent profiles in zebrafish and mice after spinal cord injuries, and found that targeting senescent cells can promote recovery.

A CRISPR Cure for Transthyretin Amyloidosis – A single dose of an in vivo gene-editing agent reduced transthyretin (TTR) levels in patients with TTR amyloidosis.
