Researchers have discovered a new type of tissue, a soft and flexible ‘fatty cartilage’ that could revolutionize the ...

A new study describes a type of cartilage that may have been discovered, forgotten and found again at several points in ...

Figure 1: Application of adult MSCs to tissue engineering, illustrated by several approaches to articular cartilage repair. Cell-based tissue engineering is one of the most promising approaches in ...

A global team of scientists has made a groundbreaking discovery of a new skeletal tissue known as "lipocartilage," offering ...

A new EU-funded project, micro2MACRO (m2M), has been launched, in December 2024, with the goal of advancing tissue regeneration through the development of an innovative bioprinting platform. The m2M ...

The smooth functioning of the body’s joints, the flexibility of the ears and nose, and the shaping of bones are all made possible by the skeletal tissue known as cartilage. 1 According to popular ...

Two new studies offer insights into the evolution and development of external ears, which appear in humans and other mammals ...

Currently, cartilage reconstruction often requires harvesting tissue from the patient's rib – a painful and invasive procedure. In the future, patient-specific lipochondrocytes could be derived ...

Surgeons often resort to transferring cartilage from the rib, which is stiff, or using silicone implants, with neither material matching the real thing. Implanted tissues are not flexible in the s ...
