Organ failure impacts millions of patients each year and costs hundreds of billions of US Dollars. Over the last 30 years, scientists have utilized a combination of tools, methods, and molecules of ...

Existing tissue engineering platforms to mend damaged or injured hearts involve invasive open heart surgery to implant regenerative cells or tissues. Current research team has developed lab grown ...

In this study, we present a method for assembling biofunctionalized paper into a multiform structured scaffold system for reliable tissue regeneration using an ...

A team of researchers is mending broken hearts with an expanding tissue bandage a little smaller than a postage stamp. A team of U of T Engineering researchers is mending broken hearts with an ...

The first indigenously developed tissue engineering scaffold from mammalian organs, an animal-derived Class D Biomedical Device that can rapidly heal skin wounds at low-cost with minimum scarring, has ...

Neuronal cells cultured in the laboratory or in vitro provide a model to understand neuronal biology. Neurons derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) are a tool to study neurobiology and ...

Chondrocyte-stimulated tissue regeneration was reportedly aided by star-shaped polymer architecture. Scientists report on the construction of biodegradable star-shaped poly(l-lactic acid) (SS-PLLA) ...
