The sterility of the bipaternal mice may be due to excessive modifications of imprinted genes, as these regions play various ...

Researchers have created genome-wide, high-resolution genetic maps of 100 inbred mouse strains. Compared with wild-derived strains, most of today's classical lab strains have limited genetic diversity ...

Every so often a scientific discovery comes along that is enough to baffle the smartest people you know - and this could be ...

Laboratory mice are deliberately making mistakes during experiments and annoying the scientists watching them. The humble lab ...

Researchers in China have achieved what many believed couldn't be done: they've created viable, healthy mice using genetic ...

For pet and lab mice, running wheels are a common feature, often used to encourage exercise. However, some scientists have argued that mice only run on these wheels because they live in cages and that ...

Scientists in China have engineered embryonic stem cells to produce lab mice with two male parents. Though these mice reached adulthood with developmental issues, the method offers insights into ...

In order to do so, however, they first needed to create a small, transparent window into the skulls of lab mice. They then trained the tool on the direct cranial opening after providing their test ...

(Reuters) - Scientists in China have manipulated embryonic stem cells to create laboratory mice with two male parents that managed to live to adulthood - though with significant developmental ...

Imagine if researchers could program stem cells, which have the potential to grow into all cell types in the body, so that they could generate an entire human organ.... In what seems like the ...
