When bone defects are too large for natural repair, the space fills with scar tissue. New 3D scaffolds with connected spaces ...
New protein-polysaccharide bio-ink enhances 3D bioprinting precision, cell viability and structural strength, offering ...
For centuries, the inability to regrow lost body parts has been considered a defining limitation of humans and other mammals.
Laboratory trials demonstrated that the bio-ink closely mimics the extracellular matrix of bone tissue, facilitating cell ...
For most of the tissues in the human body, the anatomy of cell differentiation is known. This is not true, however, for bone marrow. One of the reasons lies in the complexities that surround the ...
While aging is known to weaken bone repair, the underlying causes remain unclear. Researchers have now discovered that mitochondrial DNA structures called G-quadruplex accumulate in periosteal stem ...
Researchers have developed a soft laser-printed scaffold made almost entirely of water that bone cells readily colonize.
That unmistakable sound of bone giving way under pressure sends immediate dread through anyone who hears it. Broken bones account for millions of medical visits annually in the United States alone, ...
