Researchers have used naïve pluripotent stem cells to create an embryo model that looks and acts like a natural human embryo. They say it’s an ethical way of gaining a better understanding of ...

Around eight days after fertilization, the human embryo implants in the endometrium (the tissue that lines the uterus). After implantation, it enters a developmental phase that is not well understood ...

The architecture of the body is not encoded as a formal blueprint; rather, it's the tightly orchestrated activation and ...

Scientists have developed a new human-based endometrial model to study embryonic implantation in the early stages of pregnancy.

Embryonic morphological development is delayed in live pregnancies ending in miscarriage, according to a prospective cohort study from the Netherlands. Among over 600 singleton pregnancies, those ...

A recent Nature study evaluates post-implantation development in humans using embryo-like models based on genetically unmodified human naïve embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Study: Complete human day 14 ...

Embryos in pregnancies that end in miscarriage take longer to develop in the womb than those in pregnancies that result in live births, according to new research published today (Monday) in Human ...

BEIJING, Jan. 29 (Xinhua) -- After years of dedicated research, a team of Chinese scientists has unveiled critical mechanisms governing early human embryonic development, offering novel theories and ...

Scientists have created a stem cell-derived model of the human embryo in the lab by reprogramming human stem cells. The breakthrough could help research into genetic disorders and in understanding why ...
