As chronic liver disease becomes more widespread, researchers at Science Tokyo have developed a lab-grown organoid that replicates a regenerating liver, offering new hope for future treatments. The ...

A new multiplex immunofluorescence workflow using standard laboratory equipment and open-source software enables detailed ...

Engineered tissue grafts could help perform key liver functions and benefit thousands of people living with liver failure.

At a Biotechnology Council event a few years ago, Nicole Valenzuela's ears perked up when she heard what a group of researchers in Iowa State University's College of Veterinary Medicine had in the ...

The research group led by CIC biomaGUNE's Ikerbasque Research Professor Aitziber L. Cortajarena has developed an innovative ...

When liver disease reaches its end stage, the damage is so extensive that even the liver's remarkable ability to regenerate can no longer keep up. At this irreversible threshold, an organ transplant ...

What happens when people unknowingly eat, drink or inhale nearly invisible pieces of plastic? Although it's unclear what impact this really has on humans, researchers have now taken a step toward ...

In a breakthrough that brings bioengineered organs one step closer to reality, scientists have created lab-grown liver tissue capable of forming its own blood vessels. A team from Cincinnati ...

A US biotechnology company has 3D printed a tiny functioning liver in the lab that survived just over five days -- more than twice the life expectancy of 2D versions. Presenting the results at the ...

Using human induced pluripotent stem cells, researchers have built a miniature 3D liver model that replicates the critical interaction between hepatocytes and stellate cells. As chronic liver disease ...
