Precision-cut liver slice (PCLS) technology has long been regarded as a promising ex vivo platform because it preserves the native multicellular architecture of liver tissue.
Researchers from the Roger Williams Institute of Liver Studies at King's College London developed two 3D models from human tissue to understand the effects that a drug—a cyclophilin inhibitor—has on ...
Four patented Tissue Orb bioreactors within spaceflight hardware. This configuration will be launched into space and installed into the International Space Station during the first flight experiment ...
The genetic “BOOST” strategy integrates tissue engineering and synthetic biology tools to enable on-demand liver growth inside the body. By specifically rewiring the gene expression of primary liver ...
A medication long used to help people breathe may soon help protect the liver as well. Researchers at the Medical University ...
Dr. Vadim Jucaud's lab at the Terasaki Institute has developed a vascularized liver tissueoid-on-a-chip (LToC) platform that recapitulates key structural, functional, and immunological features of ...
Looking ahead: Every year, tens of thousands of Americans receive organ transplants, yet demand still outstrips supply. Now, a research team at Carnegie Mellon University believes the way out of that ...
Living matter is not a passive material. A blood vessel wall, a hydrogel seeded with cells, a growing tissue: all are active networks whose architecture is continuously rewritten by encapsulated cells ...
