Scientists have developed a groundbreaking method to reveal the structure of tissues and tumors with unprecedented detail, by completely dissolving away cells and leaving the delicate ...

A connective tissue protein known to support the framework of organs also encourages immune responses that fight bacterial infections, while restraining responses that can be deadly in the ...

“In this paper, we develop a 3D connective tissue model that enables us to directly quantify how exposing cells in a 3D environment to different nutrients, growth factors or drug treatments results in ...

Stiffness in the extracellular matrix is thought to contribute to pathological cutaneous fibrosis. Here, the authors identify the elastic fibre protein Fibulin-5 as a link and potential ...

Scientists from the Biotech Research & Innovation Centre (BRIC) at the University of Copenhagen have developed a groundbreaking method to reveal the structure of tissues and tumours with ...

By studying dense connective tissue, scientists are discovering ways that the cell nucleus adapts and changes in response to the administration of force, time, and differentiation.

GEN Edge met with Founder, President, and CEO Laura Niklason to learn about Humacyte’s journey from clinical observation to commercial-scale tissue manufacturer and how the company plans on ...

CollPlant Biotechnologies has announced the expansion of the distribution network for its soft tissue repair matrix, VergenixSTR, in key European and Asian markets.

A connective tissue protein known to support the framework of organs also encourages immune responses that fight bacterial infections, while restraining responses that can be deadly in the ...

However, if the activation of connective tissue cells cannot be switched off, fibrotic diseases occur in which an enormous amount of matrix is deposited in the tissue, leading to scarring and ...
