Colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), cancer that has spread from the colon or rectum to the liver, have a deadly reputation. Due to its pervasive spread, typical cancer treatments like chemotherapy and ...

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 ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) A large number of people around the world suffer from chronic skin wounds each year. Often, chronic wounds such as skin ulcers are seen in older people suffering from circulation ...

The fabrication of a prototype tissue having functional properties close to the natural ones is crucial for effective transplantation. Tissue engineering scaffolds are typically used as supports which ...

Researchers at the University of Surrey have developed a new method for electrospinning sponges that can act as 3D scaffolds for skin regeneration. Electrospinning is a technique that electrifies ...

Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...

While 3D bioprinting is widely used to construct complex biocompatible structures, researchers are now attempting to extend the technique into the fourth dimension. Here, 3D printed objects can be ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers engineered epitope scaffolds (ESs) of conserved regions of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike ...

As the principle structural polysaccharide in plants, cellulose has been extensively characterized over many decades. In recent years, however, exciting new cellulosic materials have been developed ...

Three-dimensional scaffolds and recombinant growth factors have been proven to be effective stimulants for chondrogenesis in articular cartilage tissue engineering. One challenge in implementing ...
