Biodegradable microspheres can be used to deliver heart cells generated from stem cells to repair damaged hearts after a heart attack, according to new findings by UCL researchers. This type of cell ...

Nature Materials – To repair complexly shaped tissue defects, an injectable cell carrier is desirable to achieve an accurate fit and to minimize surgical intervention. However, the injectable carriers ...

Chondrocyte-stimulated tissue regeneration was reportedly aided by star-shaped polymer architecture. Scientists report on the construction of biodegradable star-shaped poly(l-lactic acid) (SS-PLLA) ...

Researchers at MIT have developed injectable tissue grafts, dubbed “satellite livers,” that self-assemble inside the body after being delivered through a standard syringe. In work described by MIT on ...
