A new strategy in tissue engineering has been developed: Tiny spherical microscaffolds are created in a high precision 3D printer. They are cultivated with living cells and then assembled. The cells ...

This review innovatively proposes the use of electrospinning to fabricate electroactive fibrous scaffolds, which mimic the structure of the extracellular matrix while providing electrical activity, ...

These fields aim to facilitate healing and restore lost function in damaged or diseased tissues and organs by integrating scaffolds, cells, and biological signaling molecules. This combination aims to ...

Four patented Tissue Orb bioreactors within spaceflight hardware. This configuration will be launched into space and installed into the International Space Station during the first flight experiment ...

An "out-of-this-world" project has the potential to transform the future of tissue engineering and liver transplantation through innovative research conducted aboard the International Space Station ...

AMES, Iowa –Iowa State University researchers have created a new way to design and fabricate microfibers that support cell growth and could be useful tools for reconnecting nerves and regenerating ...

Cutting edge: Scientists studying human tissue self-assembly will try to grow human liver tissue in space next year. The microgravity of the ISS provides a perfect environment to allow cells to ...

(Nanowerk News) For centuries, civilizations have used naturally occurring, inorganic materials for their perceived healing properties. Egyptians thought green copper ore helped eye inflammation, the ...

'eMAP' enables labeling of more than a dozen more synaptic proteins than its predecessor MAP, allowing for deeper studies of circuit junctions in brain tissue. The glory of tissue expansion ...
