Researchers have engineered molecules that act like 'cellular glue,' allowing them to direct in a precise fashion how cells bond with each other. The discovery represents a major step toward building tissues and organs, a long-sought goal of regenerative medicine.
Endometriosis is a condition that causes pelvic pain, menstrual cramps, and infertility, and it affects up to 15 percent of women in the United States who are of reproductive age. Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus. This tumour ma
Researchers from the University at Buffalo have developed a new strontium-loaded scaffold that can be customised to fit any size dental implant and may aid in patient healing and tissue attachment.
In a new study, Northwestern University researchers used artificial intelligence to analyze data from a wide variety of tissues, collected from humans, mice, rats and killifish. They discovered that the length of genes can explain most molecular-level changes that occur during aging.
Besides the skin, the digestive tract is the tissue that is most exposed to environmental influences such as bacteria and viruses. Therefore, cells that form these barriers to the interior of the body also have special defence mechanisms. A research team led by Professor Dr Thorsten Hoppe ha
B cells are critical to the proper functioning of the immune system. However, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have shown that they can sometimes do more harm than good, as their numbers greatly increase after bowel damage, preventing the tissue from healing. The results, which are prese
Approximately 80% of cancer patients experience substantial muscle wasting or loss of muscular tissue, and 30% of these individuals die as a result of this illness. According to new mouse research, the severity of muscle wasting is related to the kind, size, and location of the tumour.
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a profound impact on all facets of the medical industry but according to official data, active coordination and revival of their public hospitals have increased organ donations and transplantation programmes in Delhi.
A unique new material developed at the University of Limerick in Ireland has shown significant promise in the treatment of spinal cord injury. Brand new research conducted at UL's Bernal Institute - published in the leading global journal Biomaterials Research - has made exciting progress in
