A team of Chinese researchers has recently developed a model to predict the aging of 13 human organs, including the brain, enabling precise assessment of organ aging levels, the China Science Daily ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers used cutting-edge blood plasma proteomics to investigate if human organs age at different rates. They analyzed 11 organs in almost 5,700 ...

An organ is a group of tissues that work together to perform a specific task in the body, such as digesting nutrients or producing chemical messengers that enable brain cells to communicate. Although ...

Biomedical engineers have developed a silk-based, ultrathin membrane that can be used in organ-on-a-chip models to better mimic the natural environment of cells and tissues within the body. When used ...

New research has mapped the cell types that specialize to form reproductive organs in both sexes, identifying key genes and signals that drive this process. The findings offer important insights into ...

Perfusion keeps a donated organ alive outside the body, giving surgeons extra time and increasing the number of transplants possible. By Ted Alcorn On some level, the human liver in the operating room ...
