As our hair goes gray and our muscles weaken with age, our immune system also changes. In particular, the stem cells that ...

The team used human stem cells to create embryo-like structures dubbed “hematoids” that mirror some features of early human ...

Researchers in Brazil reviewed over 60 studies to explore how microplastics—plastic bits smaller than 5 millimeters—affect ...

The review of more than 60 scientific articles showed that microplastics, among other effects, can stimulate the formation of osteoclasts, cells specialized in degrading bone tissue. Microplastics ...

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. For a new study published in ACS Nano, researchers developed a ...

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. Researchers reporting in ACS Nano developed a 3D printable ...

Microplastics have been detected in human blood, brain tissue, and even bones, where they may weaken skeletal structure and accelerate cell aging. Recent studies suggest that these particles could ...

The production and use of over 400 million tons of plastic each year has polluted beaches, rivers, and even the deepest parts of the ocean, reaching depths of up to 11,000 meters. In addition to ...

Introduction: Periodontal bone regeneration remains a significant challenge in clinical dentistry due to the complex structure of periodontal tissues and their limited intrinsic regenerative capacity.

Lung tumors don't just evade the immune system. They reshape it at its source. Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators report in the September 10 online issue of ...

Spaceflight makes certain human stem cells age faster, a new study has found, furthering scientists’ understanding of the potential effects of space exploration on the human body. Stem cells are found ...
