Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, our skin tissue—and in fact many types of epithelial tissue that lines and covers the ...

Various tissues and organs in the human body, such as nerves, heart, bones, and skin, rely on bioelectrical signals to maintain function and support ...

KFSHRC treats inner ear disorders using ultra-micro 3D printing - reconstructing the delicate structure responsible for the body’s balance.

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

The aging liver undergoes dramatic changes in its functional organization and other key attributes, which may underpin its increasing susceptibility to disease, according to a study led by ...

Paleontologists have found evidence of a previously unrecognized soft tissue structure in the cheek region of many dinosaur species, which they’ve called the exoparia. The finding deepens our ...

It is well established that cellulose synthesis in higher plants requires three different but related cellulose synthase (CESA) isoforms. Here the authors provide convincing biochemical and cryo ...

Introduction: The RAB11 family of small GTPases are intracellular regulators of membrane and vesicular trafficking. We recently reported that RAB11A and RAB11B redundantly regulate spindle dynamics in ...

Combining lab-grown muscle tissue with a series of flexible mechanical joints has led to the development of an artificial hand that can grip and make gestures. The breakthrough shows the way forward ...

Researchers in Japan have taken a major step forward in biohybrid robotics by developing a hand powered by lab-grown muscle tissue. A collaborative effort between the University of Tokyo and Waseda ...

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...
