Brno, Czech Republic. 18th October 2013. Head of Department of Histology and Embryology - Faculty of Medicine at Masaryk University Ales Hampl (pictured) informed about the discovery of an enzyme which decides on the future purpose of stem cells in the early stages of human development. A small protein labeled PTP1B is responsible for whether a particular cell will form the basis of internal organs or the nervous system. The discovery can be used in the future to develop effective therapeutic cells, for example in certain neurodegenerative diseases. Ales Hampl is pictured (CTK Photo/Vaclav S
