According to a study published Tuesday in Nature Communications, researchers have successfully transplanted the nucleus from a skin cell to create new eggs that could allow patients to have ...

Oregon scientists used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs, a step in the quest to develop lab-grown eggs or sperm to one day help people ...

Scientists have developed functional eggs from ordinary human skin cells, a proof of concept that could open up new ways to treat infertility.

The embryos weren’t used to try to establish a pregnancy, but the researchers behind the technique say it could one day be used to address infertility.

In a proof-of-concept experiment, scientists demonstrated that you can create and fertilize human eggs in the lab using sperm, genes from skin cells, and the "shells" of existing egg cells.

Scientists describe the technique as an early proof of concept and say it could take at least a decade of further research before clinical translation.

An innovative use of skin cells could provide a route for gay couples or women with fertility problems to have children they are both genetically related to ...

Human skin cells may one day be used to create functional human eggs in a step toward helping women have their own genetic children when their natural eggs are dysfunctional, according to very early ...

More work needs to be done to create viable human embryos, but the method might someday be used in IVF to help infertile people and male couples.

Scientists said Tuesday they have turned human skin cells into eggs and fertilized them with sperm in the lab for the first time—a breakthrough that is hoped to one day let infertile people have ...

Eggcelsior! Scientists have made a landmark breakthrough that enables the creation of viable human egg cells from a skin cell, new research claims. The study, published in Nature Communications, ...
