Using a standard protocol for dissociating cells from liver tissue, several cell types have been isolated and evaluated for their potential as a source of cells for hepatic tissue engineering ...
A new process could help to treat liver disease without needing an organ transplant, a new study reveals. Hepatic progenitor ...
D bioprinting uses living cells as "ink" to create functional tissues. Discover how this technology is transforming medicine ...
Aging and chronic diseases involve the gradual accumulation of subtle tissue changes over a long period. Therefore, there are ...
Microgravity offers a unique condition for tissue engineering, advancing stem cell-derived liver tissue development. But how can we transport these tissues to Earth without damaging them? Researchers ...
The liver is the only internal organ that can regenerate itself. Remarkably, even if 70 percent of the liver is removed, its tissue can regrow into a full-sized organ within a matter of months. By ...
Her work at UCSF spans clinical practice and innovative research, focusing on liver tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The project has received support from several organizations, ...
Led by Tammy T. Chang, MD, PhD, FACS, a professor of surgery at the University of California, San Francisco, the Chang Laboratory for Liver Tissue Engineering is pioneering the self-assembly of ...
