A new study found that the brain may contain higher levels of microplastics, equivalent to the amount found in a standard plastic spoon, than other organs in the body ...

Tissue engineering utilizes 3D printing and bioink to grow human cells on scaffolds, creating replacements for damaged ...

Within multicellular organisms, tissues are organized communities of cells that work together to carry out a specific function. The exact role of a tissue in an organism depends on what types of ...

The whole Tahoe region was hit hard with a massive amount of snow during the 2022/2023 winter and everyone learned about this ...

SCP-Nano combines optical tissue clearing, light-sheet microscopy imaging, and deep-learning algorithms. First, whole mouse bodies are made transparent. After the three-dimensional imaging of ...

Tissue processing advance can label proteins at the level of individual cells across whole, intact rodent brains and other large samples just as fast and uniformly as in dissociated single cells.

Epithelial tissues are in constant interaction with their environment. Maintaining their functionality requires dynamic balance (homeostasis) and that their cell numbers are tightly regulated.

Another advantage highlighted in the paper is that the device can be implanted in a developing animal and withstand transitions in tissue structures as the organism grows, something that is not ...

While neurological disorders often result in irreversible cell loss, stimulating NPCs—rare cells capable of repairing neural tissue—has shown promise when it comes to expanding limited ...
