Excited to share a recent publication from the lab. Daniel Benjamin & Jengmin Kang led the study of the allocation of resources to survival over reproduction in stem cells during aging. #EvolutionaryTradeOffs #SurvivorshipBias

www.science.org Cellular survivorship bias as a mechanistic driver of muscle stem cell aging Aging is characterized by a decline in the ability of tissue repair and regeneration after injury. In skeletal muscle, this decline is largely driven by impaired function of muscle stem cells (MuSCs)...

Happy to share our recent review as part of the @CellStemCell Hallmarks series, co-authored with friends/colleagues/collaborators, Anne Brunet (@BrunetLab) and Peggy Goodell (@Goodell_lab)

Hallmarks of stem cell aging: Cell Stem Cell cell.com/cell-stem-cell…

www.cell.com Hallmarks of stem cell aging Aging disrupts core functions of somatic stem cells throughout the body, leading to impaired tissue maintenance and repair. We identify five key features of aged stem cells, highlighting how their...

Dr. Lili Yang's studies of repurposing common antidepressants offers new hope in the development of novel anti-cancer regimens.

UCLA Broad Stem Cell @UCLAstemcell May 21, 2025

A UCLA study suggests that common antidepressants could enhance the immune system’s ability to fight #cancer and suppress tumor growth. Repurposing these existing FDA-approved drugs could speed up the process of bringing new cancer treatments to patients. stemcell.ucla.edu/news/common-an…
