The work addresses a persistent limitation in experimental diabetes therapies. In Type 1 diabetes, insulin producing islet ...

Forming sensory organs requires complicated interactions between numerous cell types. Building these tissues in a dish from human stem cells helps researchers understand how they develop over time and ...

The team of researchers led by Prof. Kristian Franze found that increasing tissue stiffness induces the expression of chemical signals that are typically absent in those regions. Semaphorin 3A is one ...

When a vertebrate embryo develops, a group of cells self-organizes into the neural tube, eventually becoming the brain and the spinal cord. This involves specific signals, but how these signals are ...

Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from engineering, biology, and materials science to develop biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue ...

Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have shown significant potential for repairing and regenerating damaged tissues and can be used to provide personalized treatment plans, with broad ...

More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. This condition can lead ...

A new type of tissue model that more accurately mimics the architecture of the liver could help develop drugs to treat MASLD.
