What are Tissue Engineering Scaffolds? Tissue engineering scaffolds are three-dimensional structures designed to support cell growth, migration, and differentiation for the regeneration of damaged or ...
Piezoelectricity in native bones has been well recognized as the key factor in bone regeneration. However, the current additive-manufactured scaffolds mainly focus on the reconstruction of bionic ...
“We see in our specialty patients who have ear deformities, called microtia, which can be reconstructed, but it's a technically challenging operation that I think very few people in the world do well, ...
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 ...
The utilization of biodegradable biomaterials as a therapeutic modality for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration has emerged as a promising avenue for ...
Breast conserving surgery, otherwise known as lumpectomy, is performed on nearly 1.3 million breast cancer patients globally, each year. Complete removal of cancerous tissue and preservation of the ...
Heart disease is a leading cause of heart attacks, and current bypass grafts often fail to fully regenerate healthy blood vessels. Using a rapid 3D-printing process called MµCLIP, researchers created ...
Injection of urinary bladder matrix and cancer cell lines results in a decreased tumour size in mice after five days compared with cancer cell injection alone. (Courtesy: M T Wolf et al Sci. Transl.
Traditional-tissue engineering approaches (Panel A) seed cells onto a three-dimensional biomaterial scaffold that serves as a framework for new tissue development (i). The scaffold degrades as new ...
Matrix Meats – an Ohio-based startup developing customizable nanofiber scaffolds for cell-cultured meat production - will showcase a prototype “solid meat product such as a thin piece of steak” in ...
