Biomedical engineers at Texas A&M University have used nanoflowers to make stem cells produce roughly twice the usual number of mitochondria. These enhanced stem cells then transfer the extra energy-producing organelles to damaged or aging cells, restoring their energy production and resilience in lab studies, according to a new report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
