Researchers have found evidence of a previously unrecognized soft tissue structure in the cheek region of many dinosaur species, which they've called the "exoparia." The finding deepens our ...

Despite centuries of study, scientists are still finding new details and even overlooked structures within the human body. As researchers explore anatomical differences between individuals, it’s ...

Scientists have taken a surprising step toward unlocking regeneration in mammals, showing that the ability to rebuild complex ...

Biomedical engineers from the University of Melbourne have invented a 3D printing system, or bioprinter, capable of fabricating structures that closely mimic the diverse tissues in the human body, ...

Recent advances that have enabled the growth of tissue cultures into organoids and embryoids have heightened interest as to how tissue growth is controlled during the natural processes of embryo ...

In histopathology, acquiring subcellular-level three-dimensional (3D) tissue structures efficiently and without damaging the tissues during serial sectioning and staining remains a formidable ...

Our bodies are constantly breaking down. Over time, their built-in repair mechanisms also fail. Knee cartilage grinds away. Hip joints no longer support weight. Treatments for breast cancer and other ...

The contraction process involves interactions between actin and myosin filaments within the sarcomeres to generate force. News organizations may use or redistribute this image, with proper attribution ...

The discovery of the interstitium made waves, with many questioning whether scientists had discovered a new organ. “It's actually not an organ. It's a system,” said Neil Theise, a medical doctor and ...
