Washington [US], July 12 (ANI): Producing biomaterials that match the performance of cartilage and tendons has been an elusive goal for scientists, but a new material demonstrates a promising new approach to mimicking natural tissue.
Rochester (New York) [US], February 19 (ANI): Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. Scientists from Rochester Institute of Technology and Cornell University teamed up to explore cartilage tissue's unique properties with the hopes of impr
Rochester (New York) [US], February 15 (ANI): Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time. Now, scientists from Rochester Institute of Technology
California [US], December 13 (ANI): The researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of USC recently have used a stem cell-based bio-implant to repair cartilage and delay joint degeneration in a large animal model.
Alberta [Canada], May 5 (ANI): In a breakthrough study, a team of University of Alberta researchers has discovered a way to use 3-D bioprinting technology to create custom-shaped cartilage for use in surgical procedures.
Pennsylvania [US], April 11 (ANI): The findings of a recent animal-based study suggests that a new biosealant therapy may help to stabilize injuries that cause the cartilage to break down, paving the way for a future fix, or even better, begin working right away with new cells to enhance hea
New Delhi [India], March 22 (ANI/Mediawire): The Edogawa Evolutionary Laboratory of Science (EELS) based in Tokyo, Japan headed by Dr Shojiro Katoh, an orthopaedic surgeon, has developed a technology called EELS-TALC (Enriched with Essentials and Lapped in Scaffold Transplant-suitable Autolo
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], Aug 21 (ANI): Actor Sushant Singh Rajput's detailed post-mortem report which said he died by "asphyxia due to hanging (unnatural)" also noted that "pressure abrasion (ligature mark) present around the neck at the level of thyroid-cartilage, passes obliquely upw
Washington D.C. [USA], Jan 18 (ANI): In a breakthrough invention, scientists have developed a polymer sheet that mimics muscles and has the ability to turn stem cells into bones. Stem cells are special in the sense that they can differentiate themselves into different types of cells, for ins
Washington D.C. [USA], Jan 14 (ANI): Scientists have come up with artificial muscle sheets that can transform stem cells into bones. Stem cells are known for their ability to turn into many different types of cells, be they muscle cells, cartilage, or bone cells.
Washington D.C. [USA], Jan 1 (ANI): Humans may not be capable of growing back severed limbs but just like salamanders and zebra-fish, they too can heal their damaged joints.
