Living tissues do not change through biology alone. They are shaped by a constant dialogue among forces, chemicals, and ...

A study opens new perspectives to better understand how the molecular mechanisms involved in regenerative medicine work. The study focuses on tumor necrosis factor- (TNF- ) and its receptors TNFR, ...

Microscopic images of human tissue are a cornerstone of biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Yet despite their importance, these images often remain difficult to analyze systematically and to ...

Researchers have successfully regenerated skeletal and connective tissue, although the new tissue was not perfectly formed.

Researchers in Caltech's Andrew and Peggy Cherng Department of Medical Engineering have made what they call "a major step forward in medical imaging" by taking inspiration from the field of astronomy.

Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

Researchers have developed peptide-based hydrogels that mimic the aligned structure of muscle and nerve tissues, which could enable the development of functional lab-grown tissue. A team of chemists ...

Bioprinting is a bioengineering technique that utilizes the principles of 3D printing to build 3D tissue-like structures out of bioinks mixed with living cells. First making an appearance in 1988, ...
