Researchers in Sweden have engineered a cell-free cartilage scaffold that can guide the body to rebuild damaged bone. By removing the cells but preserving the structure and natural growth signals, the ...

New research suggests injured joints may not be as permanent as once believed, opening fresh strategies to fight osteoarthritis.

A research lab at the University of Caen Normandy (France) has succeeded in making cartilage using decellularized apples. The Bioconnect laboratory at the university, which I head, has just published ...

Swiss researchers have engineered elastic cartilage from patients’ own ear cells with mechanical properties close to natural tissue, although stabilisation of elastin remains a critical hurdle ...

Ear we go! Scientists 3D print the most true-to-life human ear to date. Researchers in Switzerland have 3D-printed the most ...

A team of researchers has produced elastic ear cartilage from human cells in a laboratory setting, which achieved mechanical ...

Millions of people suffering from the grinding pain of osteoarthritis may soon have new hope beyond painkillers and joint replacement surgery. Researchers, led by Dr. Nidhi Bhutani, have discovered a ...

Biomaterials are taking medicine by storm – explore some recent preclinical advances in the field that may yield therapeutic benefits.

Osteoarthritis is usually framed as the price of just getting older. Many people imagine a knee that slowly wears down, then never recovers. That picture is familiar, yet it is too simple.

In laboratory experiments, researchers have produced ear cartilage that remains form-stable in animal models. Only one element is missing to make the tissue as elastic as a natural ear. For over 30 ...
