Generating Functional Tissue Constructs that Avoid Immunogenicity Remains Elusive but Not for Long Biological scaffolding, either alone or in combination with cells for tissue regeneration, has the ...

Professor John Fisher from The University of Leeds is speaking today (14 July) at the UK National Stem Cell Network Annual Science Meeting in Nottingham about his team's research into how biological ...

Our cells don't live in a vacuum. They are surrounded by a complex, nurturing matrix that is essential for many biological functions, including growth and healing. In all multicellular organisms, ...

(Nanowerk News) Our cells don’t live in a vacuum. They are surrounded by a complex, nurturing matrix that is essential for many biological functions, including growth and healing. In all multicellular ...

Engineered tissues and organs have been grown with various degrees of success in labs for many years. Many of them have used a scaffolding approach where cells are seeded onto biodegradable supportive ...

Treatments that require reconstructing bone often involve growing new bone tissue on scaffolds that support the developing cells. A new study reports a scaffold that is not only similar to bone ...

Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are frequently used to repair bone defects. Since their discovery in the 1980s, extensive research has been conducted to improve their properties, and emerging ...

Although it may be hard to believe that there is already an "established" method of doing something such as 3D-printing biological tissue, there does indeed seem to be one. It involves using ...

The mechanism of molecular self-organization was assessed in a new model. In their study, scientists simulated how environmental factors such as temperature influence the size of oil droplets in ...

Ester Gaya examines the fungus Isaria sinclairii on an insect also known as a zombie fungus at Kew Gardens' fungarium in London on Sept. 11, 2018. Kew's State of the World's Fungi report, the first of ...
