    Isolation of adult muscle stem cells for skeletal muscle repair

    Researchers from the Institut Pasteur and the CNRS have succeeded in isolating muscle stem cells displaying a high potential for muscle repair. These cells, which correspond to satellite cells, were, until now, inaccessible in their native state. Twenty thousand muscle stem/satellite cells were sufficient to promote significant muscle repair in mice, whereas one million cultured muscle precursor...

    The Molecular Basis of Nicotine Dependence Unveiled

    Researchers from the Institut Pasteur associated with the CNRS have revealed for the first time in work published in Nature how and where nicotine dependence develops in mice. Dependence is linked to the expression of a receptor molecule for nicotine that is also involved in individuals' cognitive abilities. Therefore for the first time, they have established the existence of anatomical and...

    From stem cells to skeletal muscle : the vital stages deciphered

    A laboratory from the Institut Pasteur, associated with the CNRS has taken a determining step towards the understanding of the evolution of skeletal muscle stem cells. Using specific genetic markers, researchers have shown four characteristic stages that mark out the development of the muscle cells from a population of stem cells, which they have identified. This discovery has very important...

    A new step towards using stem cells to treat Parkinson's disease

    Research by a team at the Institut Pasteur associated with the CNRS published today in Nature Neuroscience is uncoveringsignificant prospects for developing cell therapies to repair the brain. These researchers have succeeded in triggering the transformation of neuronal stem cells from the adult brains of mice into neurons capable of secreting dopamine, a molecule lacking in Parkinson's...

    The Origins of Leprosy Using Genomics to Outline the History of an Age-Old Disease

    Researchers at Institut Pasteur recently published the results of a study in the journal Science tracing the dissemination of leprosy throughout the world over the centuries. Because the bacillus responsible for the disease, Mycobacterium leprae cannot, for various reasons, be cultivated in the laboratory, this research team has used comparative genomics techniques to prove that a single clone of...

    Fifth Human Retrovirus Discovered at Institut Pasteur

    After HTLV-1, the first human retrovirus isolated in 1980 in the United States, then HTLV-2, discovered in 1982, and finally HIV-1 and HIV-2, which cause AIDS, isolated at Institut Pasteur in 1983 and 1985, a fifth human retrovirus, HTLV-3, has just been discovered by researchers at Institut Pasteur. Its simian equivalent had been known for about ten years, and researchers were looking for this...
