Addition of growth factors to unique system helps new bone formation

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago, in collaboration with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania and Case Western University, have been working on a unique system that delivers stem cells to sites of bone defects and uses flexible fixators — pins and rods that are used to hold bones together — to provide tunable amounts of mechanical stress.

Cilia: cell’s long-overlooked antenna that can drive cancer – or stop it in its track

You might know that our lungs are lined with hair-like projections called motile cilia. These are tiny microtubule structures that appear on the surface of some cells or tissues.

Liver transplants could be redundant with discovery of new liver cell

Researchers at King’s College London have used single cell RNA sequencing to identify a type of cell that may be able to regenerate liver tissue, treating liver failure without the need for transplants.
