In recent years, interest has grown around two investigational peptides, BPC-157 and TB-500, proposed as part of a combined ...

Regenerative medicine combines tissue engineering and cell therapies to repair or replace damaged human tissues and organs. Key applications include treating osteoarthritis with mesenchymal stem cells ...

Working with three-dimensional pancreatic models (organoids), derived from mouse cells, researchers combined computer simulations with experiments to find out what controls the shape of lumens ...

Pancreatic organoids reveal how lumen shape is controlled by the balance between cell proliferation, internal pressure, and epithelial permeability.

Mechano-Growth Factor (MGF), often referred to as the IGF-1 Ec isoform (or IGF-1 Eb), is a splice variant of the insulin-like ...

The first fully biodegradable and biocompatible piezoelectric chitosan nanoparticle uses ultrasound to trigger localized stress signals in glioblastoma cells, reducing proliferation and promoting ...

Hydrogels are often used as scaffolds in tissue engineering. Living cells infused into the material can, theoretically, grow through the gel until an entire piece of tissue forms. But to grow well, ...

Bone implants often fail to fully integrate with surrounding tissue, limiting their effectiveness in regeneration. A natural but often overlooked cellular process could hold the key to better outcomes ...

A recent study published in the journal Engineering delves into the application of tissue engineering in spinal cord injury (SCI) repair, presenting a comprehensive review of the latest research and ...
