A recent discovery has found a possible avenue to improve human health by better understanding how to engineer human stem cell differentiation.
Each year, about 2.2 million bone-grafting procedures are performed worldwide, the gold standard of care being autografting, which uses the patient's own bone for tooth implantation and to repair and reconstruct parts of ...
Scientists from Sun Yat-sen University's School of Biomedical Engineering have developed tubular scaffolds made from electrospun membranes, which significantly enhance bone regeneration in critical skull defects.
Communication between cells is now believed to activate a memory mechanism that sustains gene expression, a finding based on the work of Dr. Gregory Reeves.
Life and death are traditionally viewed as opposites. But the emergence of new multicellular life-forms from the cells of a dead organism introduces a "third state" that lies beyond the traditional boundaries of life and ...
3D bioprinting is an advanced tissue engineering technique that builds complex tissues using bioactive substances like living cells and scaffolds. It provides personalized tissue repair solutions, reducing immune rejection ...
When you think of a fearsome, sharp-toothed predator, a squid probably isn't the first animal that comes to mind. But these complex creatures have sophisticated eyesight, a strong beak to crush shells and agile tentacles ...
Researchers are exploring new nature-based solutions to stimulate skin and bone repair.
Harnessing nanoparticles to deliver drugs precisely to a surgically repaired tendon is a promising new approach that reduced scar tissue formation and improved mechanical function. Researchers' success in pinpointing a drug ...
Inspired by nature, the researchers developed a piezocatalytically-induced controlled mineralization strategy using piezoelectric polymer poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fibers with ordered micro-nano structures to prepare biomimetic ...
