Lung immune diseases have become a major global public health burden, with incidence increasing over the past two decades—especially in industrialized ...

Parenchyma is the functional tissue in organs, performing the core tasks that keep us alive. From liver detoxification to kidney filtration, these cells work alongside supportive stroma to maintain ...

The research group of prof. Sanjiv Luther at the department of immunobiology of the University of Lausanne has discovered ...

For centuries, the inability to regrow lost body parts has been considered a defining limitation of humans and other mammals. While animals like salamanders can regenerate entire limbs, humans are ...

A familiar trope in science fiction is the cryopreserved time traveller, their body deep-frozen in suspended animation, then thawed and reawakened in another decade or century with all of their mental ...

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and its severe form, chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), significantly impair blood flow to the lower extremities, affecting millions of adults globally.

Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...

Understanding how living tissues function over time is essential for studying disease mechanisms, evaluating drug responses, and developing advanced in vitro models. Researchers have now developed a ...

An injection that blocks the activity of a protein involved in aging reverses naturally occurring cartilage loss in the knee joints of old mice, a Stanford Medicine-led study has found. The treatment ...

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...

Summary: Researchers have created functional brain-like tissue without relying on any animal-derived materials, marking a major step toward more ethical and reproducible neurological research. By ...

The effects that our fat has on our movement, emotions and even our risk of Alzheimer’s disease may differ depending on where in our body it is located. When it comes to studying the health ...
