New method of spinal cord tissue repair Successfully synthesized hybrid biomaterial could be used to treat spinal injuries Date: November 29, 2022 Source: University of Limerick Summary: Unique ...

Immunoblotting for RAGE and S100 proteins was done on spinal cord tissue 6 using RAGE-specific mouse monoclonal IgG (10 μg/ml), S100b-specific rabbit IgG (10 μg/ml) and βactin–specific IgG ...

The stem cells were subsequently encapsulated within the hydrogel, via "a process that mimics the embryonic development of the spinal cord." After 30 days, the result was a batch of three ...

Now, scientists have found evidence that patients already have irreversible tissue loss in the spinal cord within 40 days of injury. Using a new imaging measurement technique the impact of ...

Six years ago, we first heard about tiny two-legged "bio-bots" that used spinal muscle tissue to walk.Well, they've now received a big upgrade, in the form of spinal cord tissue that essentially ...

An estimated 1.3 million Americans are living with a spinal cord injury. "These injuries can be devastating, causing both emotional and physical distress, but there is now hope.

Each year, thousands of people suffer from spinal cord injuries, often leading to permanent paralysis and loss of function. While no complete cure exists yet for such injuries, advances in tissue ...

The use of nanotechnology in cell therapy and tissue engineering offers promising future perspectives for brain and spinal cord injury treatment. Stem cells have been shown to selectively target ...

In previous studies, Daniel Wehner showed that zebrafish also form scar-like wound tissue after spinal cord injury. However, zebrafish are able to regenerate nerves and regain motor function, even ...

A recent study published in the journal Engineering delves into the application of tissue engineering in spinal cord injury ...

As part of their recent study, Sofroniew and his colleagues set out to investigate how astrocytes in the brain and spinal cord of adult mice respond to tissue injuries. To do this, they used a ...
