A multidisciplinary team have built hydrogels built entirely from synthetic peptides so their properties can be precisely ...

Researchers have resolved a 50-year-old scientific mystery by identifying the molecular mechanism that allows tissues to ...

More than 300,000 people suffer a heart attack in Germany every year. The heart muscle is then no longer supplied with sufficient blood and oxygen, and part of the tissue dies and scars. Unlike the ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward treating spinal cord injuries that cause paralysis. In lab dishes, researchers at Northwestern University grew tiny organoids of the human spinal cord. Then, ...

Chronic wounds often spiral out of control because oxygen can’t reach the deepest layers of injured tissue. A new gel developed at UC Riverside delivers a continuous flow of oxygen right where it’s ...

A series of converging advances in bio-implant technology, from brain-spine interfaces to lab-grown spinal tissue, is ...

Share on Pinterest A new study looks at how vitamin B12 could accelerate tissue repair, and why that matters. Image credit: Berena Alvarez/Stocksy. Tissue regeneration is the process of reconstructing ...

Researchers from MIT have developed a 3D-printable tissue adhesive that demonstrates superior tissue adhesion, rapid sealing capabilities across various surgical scenarios and a unique blood-repelling ...

The race is on to regenerate damaged tissue as a result of brain injury from the likes of stroke. But one of the many barriers to the success of stem cell biotechnology has been keeping cells alive ...

A newly discovered cell that matures into two specialist cell types – an immune cell responsible for tissue repair and a cell that forms blood vessels – significantly boosts wound healing, according ...

A newly identified lung cell “switch” could help doctors unlock the lungs’ natural ability to heal themselves.
