ICYMI: Weekly #regenerative reads: new insights into MYC phosphorylation, cool idea that proteins also age and maybe that can be reversed to help the aged, mitochondria don’t like space , &, of course, that conflicted peptide FDA advisory committee ipscell.com/2026/07/weekly…
Join editors from @stemcellreports to learn how to be a good peer reviewer. This program is designed for early-career researchers, graduate students, or new reviewers.

Researchers at the University of Minnesota have helped create the world's first synthetic cell that can feed, grow and reproduce. Built entirely from non-living chemical components, SpudCell marks a major breakthrough in biological engineering with the potential to transform medicine, manufacturing and more. twin-cities.umn.edu/news-events/wo…

Menstrual Blood Repairs Cartilage in Osteoarthritis Tissue
Extracellular vesicles from menstrual blood stem cells promoted cartilage production in human tissues, offering a potential non-invasively sourced therapy for osteoarthritis.

Russia has committed $26 billion to longevity science, while China is advancing large-scale stem cell anti-aging trials and expanding aggressive investment in regenerative medicine and longevity biotechnology.
Scientific leadership in longevity is rapidly becoming a defining frontier of global competitiveness. The United States cannot afford to sit on the sidelines.

‘Autistic kids are being experimented on’: inside America’s booming market for unproven stem cell infusions
In its marketing, the clinic said that 85% of its autistic patients have had “meaningful improvement” in their behaviour and calmness, communication and speech, sleep, and seizure activity.
Should stem cell regulations in the U.S. be tightened or relaxed?

BIG anti aging news
China just launched its first large scale stem cell anti aging trial, enrolling 2,000 adults aged 50+ to test whether stem cells can help preserve strength, physical function, resilience, and healthier aging.
The therapy uses umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells, which may help regulate inflammation, support tissue repair, and improve age related decline.
This is a large, multicenter randomized controlled trial, exactly the kind of serious human evidence longevity medicine needs.
That's a pretty big deal.
anti aging progress is accelerating enormously in the last few weeks.
LEV is near
After 25 years of brave & brilliant work by hundreds of scientists in my lab to understand then safely reverse aging for the first time, it was moving to witness the first human dose being delivered 🥹 nature.com/articles/d4158…
