UCSF Proof-of-Concept Study Shows Possibilities of More Cost-Effective Cell Therapy Using ‘Universal’ Stem Cells. Scientists at UC San Francisco have shown that gene-edited cellular therapeutics can be used to successfully treat cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, potentially paving the way for developing less expensive cellular therapies to treat diseases for which there are currently few viable...
