Study: New customizable, strontium-filled scaffold could improve dental implant healing
A team of University at Buffalo researchers has developed a new strontium-loaded scaffold that can be personalized to fit any size dental implant and could help improve healing and tissue attachment in patients.
Research: Cells Expressing Tendon Markers Fuse Into Muscles
Israeli researchers have made a breakthrough discovery that muscle fibers are of hybrid origins. The findings highlight a mechanism that enables a smooth transition from muscle fiber characteristics towards tendon features that is essential for forming robust muscle tendon junctions (MTJs).
Mount Sinai Study Reveals Genetic and Cellular Mechanisms of Crohn’s Disease
New study identifies a novel approach for tailored treatment that could be more effective for patients with the chronic disease
New Insights into Wound Healing Process
Biomedical engineers developed a technique to observe wound healing in real time, discovering a central role for cells known as fibroblasts. The work, reported in APL Bioengineering, is the first demonstration of a wound closure model within human vascularized tissue in a petri dish.
